gluing in the new board

  I've removed 1 compression frowners failed board & Yes it  was  glued in 
with epoxy. It must be powered off.  In this case the  only tool to git er done 
quickly was a makita 1 inch hand held belt sander with  60 grit,  Wear a 
mask..the dust is toxic.
  . Epoxy won't scrape off,burn off or chisel off. I've glued in  dozens of 
boards with cold hide glue no problem,.  
   My current favorite is Bolduc glue but it takes 2 people to  get the glue 
on quickly. Tight bond extend as Jude & others mentioned is  also good but the 
Bolduc is less thermo plastic than the other aliphatic resin  glues mentioned 
& I do think a hard rim to soundboard  joint is a  good thing. After the 
clamps come off there is a powerful boom which means the  glue is probably 90% set 
up.  WIth hide glue or tight bond it takes  about 3 days..so what & check the 
date on the  bottle. GEt fresh  stuff.

Ok - no  epoxy.
The Garrett Wade Slo-Set - aliphatic resin glue is white - not even  close to 
yellow. Looks like PVC_E. Does the color make a  difference?
For slo set I think it would be wise to switch to a more  familiar Titebond 
as you and Terry have experience.
Thank you for the  clamping sequence tips, had not considered that.
