The stuff comes in all sorts of different flavors and strengths, so it's probably not necessarily a poor glue. Bushings should steam out OK, but if the glue sticks to the wood at all, it would melt right in. I'd be concerned about whether other glues would stick to the residue for the next guy. Of course you know that someone out there is almost certainly using CA or Titebond II. It's getting dangerous to do your own key bushing - or send them out, for that matter. Ron N
