Hello.
Some people use white vinegar, soaking the staves in the tub overnight.
I tried it once with a little barrel I had (badly) glued as a kind of training, but it didn't work very good for me. Maybe the vinegar was bad quality, or I wasn't patient enough.
I think jorge's solution is the good one :
I pried the crack open more with a knife, put a piece of coarse sandpaper in the crack and roughed up the surface of the butt joints between the staves, physically removing any loose or weak glue at the same time. Then I cleaned out the sanding dust with an alcohol soaked rag, let it dry thoroughly and re-glued the staves using Titebond.
Some people use epoxy instead of Titebond, but it's said to be irreversible, so it's better to use Titebond (1, 2 or 3)
You can also ask Ralph Flores (son of Tom Flores, the founder of Valje) : he's now got the brand name back from LP, and has his own site :
