Have you degreased the tenon slot thoroughly? It may be contaminated with oil or grease.

Use alcohol (isopropyl or similar) on a cotton bud (Q-tip) and degrease the slot around twice or three times, letting the alcohol evaporate and then applying the contact adhesive.

Just so you don't feel disheartened, I've had factory fitted tenon corks peel clean off Buffet clarinets with very little effort.
