What are people playing with for laminating veneer sheets for purflings?

I use Titebond. I make sure to give it a full 24 hour cure.

Even at 24 hours you may get some curling of wider glue ups. I have been known to wet it down after 24 hours, clamp it between a couple of pieces of melamine shelving and let it dry for another 48 hours.

I use titebond and wait 3 days to dry. I also use melamine shelves.

Like Stephen, I've used Titebond, however I used the Titebond III.
My thinking was permanence since I was planning on bending the laminated strips on a hot iron.

I've been using LMI White too. I love how hard it dries. It's right up there with Hide and Fish glue. Pretty much have quit using Titebond of any kind. Haven't tried Gorilla White, but have been hearing good things about it.
