I bought a new tube of Testors window glue last night at my lhs. I forgot it in the car last night and found it this morning. Needless to say it was frozen solid. Is there any way to save the glue? I tried letting it defrost with no help, it looks like it is ruined. Any and all ideas are welcome.

Guess what? I HAD THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. After a few days, it seemed to have softened up. ;) I haven't tried it on a window yet, but when I tested it, it was clear.

Corey, I've NEVER heard of tube glue freezeing, but if it's cold enough, anything will freeze! Are you sure it was a good tube when you bought it? I've had some tubes for years, but the tubes are still pliable, even though they're very old!

George, it has happened to me before with the cheap packs of dollar store super glue as well. I had an older tube of the Testors clear window glue just like the new one freeze last winter.

I have no idea about the window glue but I do know about other glues that are water based which I'm guessing it is since it froze. It is probably ruined. Why take a chance just buy a new one.
