Members Skwerl Posted January 6, 2013 Members Report Posted January 6, 2013 Howdy folks, I want to start doing some filagree work on wallets backed with snake or alligator. I'm not sure as to which glue to use though. Barge is a two part glue (glue goes on both pieces till dry. Then pressed together.) So that probably won't work so great. So I would love to hear suggestions and or previous success stories. Thanks Mike Quote
electrathon Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 I have used barge and put a heavy wet coat on the back of the piece, then lay it on the backing piece. Weight it down and leave it for a while. It will stick. Quote
Members Skwerl Posted January 9, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 9, 2013 So no votes for any glue besides Barge? Quote
Members mikesmith648 Posted January 9, 2013 Members Report Posted January 9, 2013 Tanner's Bond works well and dries fairly clear.........and it will not need so heavy a coat Quote

Members Skwerl Posted January 10, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 10, 2013 Hmm...not seeing any consistent answer. I guess that leaves it to personal taste. I just want a piece that is going to hold up to daily use. Quote
