 Re: Compress tenon cork after renewal

For some years double sided tape was used on some student brands to fix key corks.
Unfortunately that proved to fail very easily under warm conditions and corks slipped and came loose.
It obviously offers a quick and cheap solution for manufacturers but most technicians prefer to use contact cement for a long and permanent job.

Also with contact cement there is no need to clamp the cork onto the tenon.

pre-compressing the cork before applying to the tenon can help if the cork quality is a little substandard.

Sometimes one can be lucky and find that the cork needs no sanding after fitting however sanding the cork after fitting to the tenon to obtain the optimum fit is a standard technique for any good repairer.
