Re: Gum chemistry is simple and easy and Gloy

That is very kind of yo, but when we thought that Gloy had been dropped last
year as someone had left it out of the catalogue by mistake, I bought quite
a lot. Now I wish I hadn't as our own substitute is so easy to make.
Steven's glue used to be brown but that was gum arablic.

Hi Terry,
I came across some stuff named 'Brown Glue' in a bottle similar in shape and
function (dispenser with a slit on the end) to the old Gloy. I
bought some and it smells, tastes and looks like the original stuff did. I
have yet to try it in printing. Wilkinsons hardware is the shop to find it.
If you're interested I'll drop you a bottle in the post..
