I have a very old, but lovable children's table and chair set. The table
and the chairs have heavy metal legs, which look like steel and appear
to be solid (not tubes). Each one has a little white cap or foot made of
(I think) rubber. Some of the feet are cracked or split and some are
just loose. I have tried taping them, but it doesn't last and looks
awful.

Is there a glue that will permanently stick these rubber feet to the
metal legs? I have some T-88, but the list it works on does not include
either metal or rubber.

Thanks


I agree with others comments that feet are degraded. Original adhesion
was probably just a friction fit as feet are kept in place by weight of
the chairs and table.

Personally, what I might try is Gorilla glue. Gorilla glue is a
polyurethane that cures with moisture and expands due to carbon dioxide
evolution. After applying, I'd bind tightly and let it glue everything
together - plastic to steel and plastic to plastic. If feet are
degrading, this would not be a permanent fix but might last a few years.
