Agreed. I'd further suspect that trying to dissolve the PVA will leave you with a nice gummy mess on your tube and safety glass... If we can find out the bonding agent that is affected by the water, it may be possible to do better. I wonder if it would make a difference to gently heat the water to say, 40/50 degrees C. Not too stressful for the tube, and if done slowly, it allows a thermal gradient to establish with minimal stress.
