Members Crimson Hides Posted January 25, 2014 Members Report Posted January 25, 2014 double sided tape works for me most of the time. I find that using cement glue too near the edges will have difficulty with the glue "bubble" forming when burnishing later. Quote
Members Jimbob Posted January 26, 2014 Members Report Posted January 26, 2014 Leatherweld .....white glue.... is used by all shoemakers and works well!! But I use expensive Barge cement and often woodweld..both work well too...just what ever you get used to it and what works for you....they all three permanent glues !

electrathon Posted January 26, 2014 Report Posted January 26, 2014 Good tip, Aaron. Glue on edges is a real pain. I use a German glue (made by Renia) called Klebfest. It is almost impossible to 'unstick'! If anyone in the UK is looking I sell it on my website. I ama huge fan of Renia, it has to be the most amazing contact cement ever. I have been amazed most leatherworkers are not flocking to it over the other glues available to them. Never heard of Klebfest, is it a version of contact or a white glue similar to leatherweld? I looked quickly and did not find it in America. Quote
