Default How to Thicken Bear Glue

I haven't used my Bear Glue in awhile - when I used it today, it was very thin and ran off
my project. I like the glue but is there a way to make it thicker so it will stay where I lay
it down?

I would try adding a very small amount of corn starch to a small amount of glue, and going from there. If your glue has been stored under cold conditions, you may not be able to revive it.

I'll try that. Definitely not cold conditions. Thanks

It is likely that it has settled. Mine do...no matter what brand. Shake and shake, and if necessary open and stir. That will take care of it.
