Was skeptical about PVA vs wheat paste for years, finally switched
I used to swear by wheat paste for all my book repairs, thought PVA was just for lazy binders. But after my copy of "The Great Gatsby" from 1925 started bubbling at the spine in under 6 months, I tried a Lineco PVA on a 1940s journal. That was 3 years ago and it's holding solid with zero issues. Anyone else stubbornly stuck on one adhesive then got proven wrong?

Honestly it's like how I used to only buy name brand everything until the store brand proved me wrong.
