What do you use to glue plastic to leather? I have "Barge - All Purpose Cement", but I was thinking something less harsh would be good.

Thanks, Steve

Hey Steve

REMEMBER to put some sandpaper to the plastic before applying for better adhesion. Don't think there is any thing 'less harsh' that will make a permanent 'stick'.

Happy Tooling

Steve,

What plastic item are you wanting to glue to leather?

The plastic edges of a see through id cover in a wallet.

I make law enforcement type badge wallets. I use a heavy grade clear plastic that is used on convertible cars. I cut the plastic to what I want, mark the plastic with a stylus, then gently sand with 120 grit paper and put just enough to hold my window pane in place, let it dry and then I sew.

Hope this works for ya

Happy tooling

Tim
