Bonding rubber to rubber

Is there a glue or some other way to bond sheet rubber to sheet rubber?
This is not as kinky as it sounds. The sort of rubber I'm thinking about
is the sort in CV joint gaiters, and the joint needs to be able to
withstand the stresses and movement a gaiter is normally subject to for
say 30-50k miles.
Its easy to glue rubber to rubber.
I doubt if a gaiter made of rubber would last long with all the oil and
stuff about.
The synthetic stuff gaiter are made from is also easy to glue if its
clean which is hard on old dirty cars.
I tried a split gaiter myself and gave up and did it properly the only
time I did a gaiter. The time saving in doing it properly was significant.
I seriously doubt if a proper garage would be able to fit and glue a
split gaiter quicker than doing it properly.
