I read that it is the same stuff, but wanted to know if anyone had any hard experience with the two.When I was putting on the PPG, it seemed just as thick as the Glidden, but it smelled more like standard latex house paint, and not as, I don't know, chemically? as the Glidden does?I'm sure it will probably be fine, just wanted to know if anyone had any personal experience with PPG.Thanks!zzzizxzTeardrop AdvisorPosts: 74Images: 131Joined: Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:44 amTopRe: Glidden Gripper vs PPG gripperPostby John61CT » Fri Jun 14, 2019 5:21 pmPPG Industries bought Glidden from AkzoNobel years ago.Dunno if the different labels means different contents though.datasheets and/or MSDS may helpJohn61CT1000 Club1000 ClubPosts: 1306Joined: Thu Nov 17, 2016 4:36 pmTopRe: Glidden Gripper vs PPG gripperPostby zzzizxz » Sat Jun 15, 2019 9:52 amWell, what I could find says that Glidden has 46% +/- 1% solids by volume, whereas PPG only has 39%.In personal testing these past couple days, I painted both Glidden and PPG on a piece of aluminum tube. The PPG could easily be scraped off with my fingernail. I tried scraping it off from the edge of the painted part, as well as starting in the middle of the painted part. I could scrape it off as easily in the middle as I could at the edge.When I tried to do the same with the Glidden, I could barely scrape off some paint at the edge, and really couldn't get anything to scrape off in the middle of the painted part. When I took a screwdriver to the painted part, I was unable to uniformly remove the Glidden gripper from the aluminum. I could scrape some off, but it took some real working at it, and I was doing as much damage to the aluminum as I was removing paint.I feel like the verdict is clear. PPG gripper, despite claiming to be the same product, is DEFINITELY NOT the same as Glidden. PPG seems to be an extra thick latex paint, and not a true gripping paint.This is probably worth keeping in mind for any time gripper is used as glue.
