Sf, I think I have the weld wood solvent not water based contact cement, small size bottle with built-in brush, smells like the real deal but label reads "water resistant"...made me wonder. What's the label read on the can ? Thinking of using Aquaseal to both repair a rip and re-glue peeled up edge.

A good marine grade silicone works for me. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/e ... 8HT14PGTgl

Wow, that's looks like some good stuff. Hadn't even thought much about using a silicone cause I always considered it more like a sealant than an adhesive , but that looks like a great product. Have you ever used it to adhere a full pad on a board? thanks Contiki

just done my Parkes pads after I'd pulled them off a few times.
It works very well but is hard to find. I found in a good art supply shop. Used a lot to stick photos to backing board. Waterproof. Also really hard to get it off your fingers.

I've used several products.(for me ) weldwood contact cement works the best.And if it's necessary to remove the pads;which I've done several times.It's not an hellacious chore.The main concern is having a clean,salt free dry surface.I'll scuff the surface with some light emory cloth.
cheers!
cheers!

Forgot to mention that you must clean surface with rag/solvent first to remove any wax or greases salts grime. The bond should be very strong and you will probably have to destroy the pad in order to ever get it off. Cleanup with mineral Turpentine.Sandgroper wrote:just done my Parkes pads after I'd pulled them off a few times.

anybody ever try that E-6000 adhesive ( I think it's a Shoe Goo product) Supposed to be very high strength with an extremely wide range of materials it can adhere together.

Got another vote of confidence for the Scotch 90 spray adhesive from Joe Taylor the other day and I think Buddy uses it occasionally as well, I highly trust those recommendations but I had been trying to avoid it due to the hassle of managing the overspray
