Can PVA be used if 1 surface is gloss painted? Both pieces are wood.
Thanks.

You might just get away with it if the final result only needs the surfaces to have a nodding acquaintance with each other. If, however, they are supposed to be entwined forever, not the best idea. Of course, sanding it down is likely to help a bit.
For example, when assembling some flatpack furniture where the thing is actually held together by screws (or similar), and the glue is only to be a minor gap filler - it would probably be OK.
Sticks melamine chipboard ok
Depends on your definition of OK.
Rips the melamine off IIRC
That's saying the square root of F.A though.
What doesn't?
