If I might offer a contrary opinion, I've used PVC-E with great
success. It sets up plenty fast for me, lasts well, and is even
easier than hide glue to remove. I removed a set last week that had
been installed with PVC-E. It took exactly 11 minutes from the time I
started putting on paste remover to having all the bushings off.
I've taken 3 times that long with hide glue.

List,
Part 1
Most of my key rebushing jobs have been on older keys and steam
removed the old bushings easily.
Tomorrows job will be on a mid 80=92s Young =96Chang and
I=92m not sure what type glue was used.
I searched the archives and read of Wallpaper
remover,steam , or soaking bushings with an ammonia solution. I read
that the wallpaper remover can inhibit adhesion on rebush.
Any tips appreciated.
Part 2.
Pvc-E ? For rebush?
Back to the future with animal hide glue?
I confess that my glue pot has spider webs in it
I=92ll be dead when these have to be removed again, but
I=92m leaning toward hide glue because I care about the next tech.
That=92s just the kind of guy I am.
Should I add urea to the mix? The ratio suggested was =BD
tsp to 1 tablespoon granules.
Joe Garrett, Don=92t get mad, but what=92s the word on
PVC-E? Will I be creating a problem for the aforementioned future
tech, or can it be dissolved easily?
Awaiting advice with appreciation
Tom Driscoll
P.S. I don=92t look to the archives as often as I should,
but that=92s where Newton lives ,still helping us along our way.
