I have had a bottle of Gorilla Glue for sometime and only used a dab for the project and it is now hard. Is there any way to liquify the glue so I can continue to use it. Thanks! Cassie
Answer:
If the entire bottle is hard, there is no way to soften or liquify it. (Usually means it was not stored according to the directions).
If there is a crust layer on top and liquid glue below, you can remove the cap and the spout, and then remove the hard layer or push it all the way to the bottom with a screwdriver. Any liquid glue trapped under this crust layer is still reliable and usable, but getting to it can be a challenge.
If the glue is just extremely thick, you can stand the bottle in a cup of hot water (DO NOT MICROWAVE) and gently heat the glue. This will thin out any glue that is thick but, again, it will not dissolve or soften any glue that has already cured in the container.
