Gilligan's Glue

Bio
Gilligan's Glue is an island concoction derived from the tree sap from the native trees on the island, serving as a temporary to permanent cement for the Castaways. Originally serving as syrup for Mary Ann's pancakes, the sap was noticed by the Professor to have peculiar adhesive properties that allowed them to repair the S.S. Minnow temporarily, but Gilligan eventually noticed it turned to powder and lose cohesion, resulting in the Minnow falling apart. (It also seemed to soak into the wood hull of the Minnow, giving it a malleable rubber-like consistency.) However, the Professor refined the sap from the rubber trees on the island, allowing him to repair the lens to the Mars Probe and create parts for the Island Telephone. Gilligan also discovers how to dip his hands in it to make gloves and to use it to create water-tight seals in his bamboo hot water pipes leading from volcano. The quick cohesion properties of the glue also cause the Skipper to lose his shoes in it after pooling on the ground. Mary Ann's shoe get trapped in it during the beauty contest.
