PVA Primer as PVA wood glue

[krazykev]

Hi,

I have a big tub or PVA primer which my plasterer used to prime the walls before plastering. Can I use this as PVA wood glue or is PVA wood glue totally different. The primer does seem rather thin compared to glue, although the primer is about 4 years old now, so is it that the primer has "gone off" or will it last forever?

Thanks

Kev

Solids may have settled out to the bottom, give it a good stir. No ideal for woodwork though.

Thanks - given it a good stir and its vuiscous again. Will it do light duty wood work (mending draws with screwed brackers - adding glue for good measure) or is woog pva different?

Wood pva has different additives, resistant to mold etc.
