Very strong glue
Whatever you use this on it is a permanent fix

Good glue without the smell
I've been using good old Weldwood contact cement and getting high. This glue doesn't have the smell, or get you high. It's water base so cleans up easily. And best of all it glues just as well as Weldwood.I've switched.

So expensive. So good.
Not many times in a person's life where they need a gallon of glue, but I needed several gallons to replace the roof of an RV. First layer is wood to styrene, second layer is wood to wood. This stuff worked beautifully. Poured it into a paint tray, applied with a texture roller, easy peasy. It gets tacky within a few minutes, good adhesion not long after, but takes a while to fully dry/cure. Overall, it's very easy to work with and does a great job. I am also quite happy that it seems to stay usable while sealed for a long time - I've got about a quart left in the jug, and a month later it's still perfect. This stuff isn't cheap, but like most magic 3M chemicals, it does exactly what it says it does and does it well.

Once it’s stuck there is no going back.It leaves no room for adjustment!
This cement is easy to apply and very strong. Just follow the directions and the glue will do the rest. Low odor and East cl an up.

Not super healthy to use.
This is supposed to be low VOC and maybe that's the case. But it contains toluene which is hazardous to breathe, causing damage to various organs. So don't let that little certification on the "GREENGUARD" label fool you. This is hazardous material both for humans and for the environment. Also quite expensive at $42 for a quart.

bonds fabric to fabric and fabric to metal very well
I used this glue on fabric for the "wiener dog aero method" you can find online. The process is very similar to the Stewart System method but it uses exterior "latex" paint which is an acrylic enamel and not latex anymore. I used about half a gallon of this contact cement on an Experimental Kolb Firestar. I did some test strips of 1" glue joint on fabric to fabric. In shear a man cannot pull it apart. You can peel it apart but not in shear. I love how there is no odor and you use water to clean up.

IT DOESN'T STICK
I usually avoid water based contact cement, but I thought I'd try it, and avoid the fumes of solvent based. Mistake! I bought 3M even though it was the most expensive, thinking it would be the best. I'm gluing Tolex to pine for a speaker cabinet. And it just isn't sticking. I applied it thick, I waited for it to be tack-free, I used a brayer to press the Tolex on. I've done this before. It just doesn't stick. The Tolex is hanging loose from the pine.Use your savings from buying solvent based to buy an organic vapor mask. This stuff will only waste your time and money.

Best Contact Adhesive
I was working on an RV project where I had build panels. These panels were made of framed wood with styrofoam sandwiched between 2 pieces of luan. I done this type of project before and had used 3M 1357 adhesive (which is really great adhesive) to glue the luan to the wood frame and I had use spray can adhesive for for gluing the foam to the plywood. The reason I had to use two adhesive for this project is that the 1357 will melt the foam. The 3M 30 NF Fastbond melt most kinds of foam. I use this adhesive to glue up the pieces because it faster to use one type of adhesive. Another good use of the Fasbond adhesive is for gluing headliner carpet for RV's. I was going to spray the adhesive on the carpet however my compressor was not powerful enough to handle the job. I quickly had use chip brushes to get the adhesive on the carpet. The 3M 30 NF worked great for the application and finish product looked great. It is so much easier to work with the Fastbond than other adhesives. If you buy by the gallon than the price is much cheaper than than the other adhesives.
