YIKES! Several things: 1. it breaks down with age. 2. It looks like crap, because the color of contact cement "bleeds" through. (You can see it.) 3. It's messy and stinks. Enough reason NOT to use it?<G>

Is there anything wrong with using contact cement, or rubber cement?

PVC-E glue is the glue of choice for most of us. CA doesn't last..."

The darned CA Lasts forever, DAMHIK. It's just that the adhesion to the Ivory doesn't!!!
PVC-E mixed with Titanium Dioxide is my prefered glue.
