Lawsuit Alleges Local Company Engaged In False Advertising

Two Michigan residents are suing Westerville-based Elmer's Products, the company that makes Krazy Glue, over allegations of false advertising. According to the lawsuit, the front of the packaging claims the adhesive works on wood, but the fine print on the back instructs people not to use the product on wooden surfaces. Attorney Carl Becker represents the plaintiffs in the class action litigation.

Company attorneys say the words "wood" and "leather" have been removed from the front of newer Krazy Glue packages.
