Members plinkercases Posted May 5, 2014 Members Report Posted May 5, 2014 I cant insert links but go to youtube and search this title " hand-made leather boots being made from scratch" the guys knife work is amazing when he trims and skives.. but more to the point what kind of glue could he possibly be using? finger applied, work almost immediately, and what about clean up? I know they are jump cut editing this but still I don't think he is getting off the floor to go wash his hands after each time he glues something.

Members DavidL Posted May 5, 2014 Members Report Posted May 5, 2014 Regular contact cement is what he's using. It can be wiped off easily without sticking to your fingers. Quote
Members plinkercases Posted May 5, 2014 Author Members Report Posted May 5, 2014 I though so at first but it seems more gel or grease like and "spreadable". Those are the qualities that caught my eye for ease of application. I just did a bunch of gluing with contact this weekend and it sure doesn't behave like this stuff but perhaps it is. Maybe it is rubber cement.....

Members goaninmumbai Posted January 2, 2019 Members Report Posted January 2, 2019 Hi, I am from India and can confirm this is the rubber based cement used in leather industries. I have used various brands of this stuff myself. It solvent based and kinda evaporates quickly. Quote
