Can't recall the type , but I bought it in a pint can in a craft shop. So, read the labelling carefully to see if it makes any note of this "color change."

It's a bit easier to get off yer skin than crazy glue too. _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
