Many thanks - are there any trade-names I should be going for. Where do
you think I'll be able to get this?
Evostik Serious glue. Seen some two part stuff recently in the sheds too.
I tried this stuff on leather, and from that experience I wouldnt give
it a hope in hell of holding shoes together. You really need the hot
pressed stuff the pros use as a minimum, and even that doesnt last well
in the long run. Its not really a diy job, I'd either take it to the
cobbler or preferably chuck them.
Oh? I have had pretty good results from various smelly gooops..UHU do
some brands.
Puncture repair stuff works at a pinch.
