Yes I have used EA-40 several times on bamboo bows and a lot on glass bows.
Seems like the last few times I got it was out of date (old)
After you open it the shelf life get short.

My go to is ea 40 for boo backings.  I follow the 2 parts a to 1 part b ratio.  I’ve had good results for bamboo backs. 

Pat B:
Mark, my last glue up I used Unibond that Roy (Roy of PA)sent me. Unibond is the replacement for Urac 185 that was discontinued years ago.

Eric Krewson:
I have done about 50 BBOs starting with Urac 185 and transitioned to Unibond when they quit making Urac i85, I have never had a failure.
