Re: Attaching key corks

I used the old formula Evostik for years and never had to wait for 15 minutes. It was usually between a minute to five minutes, depending on weather, surface size, thickness (which varied slightly), but more often closer to the former.

I tried the new formula, still ok, but I didn't like it as much. I changed to Bison which I like pretty much as much as the old Evostik. I tried about ten different ones and tested easy cases (e.g. large contact area cork) and difficult ones (e.g. tiny piece of synthetic felt), then trying to peel them off after a short time, long time, etc.

The best contact glue I've ever tried was a no-name one made in China, with very few details written on it, but it had such a nasty smell, one test was enough to never use it again...
