Quote:The other main proplem is that none of them are waterproof
Aren't pitch and pine rosin waterproof? Mastic must be waterproof because they chewed it like gum. Bees wax and propolis are as well. The varous hoof, fishbone and hide glues are not waterproof, just like the modern white Elmer's glue used by most to reconstruct, which is a point against them.
