Weldwood Original Contact Cement, Tan, 3 Oz (7079800107)

Used DAP Weldwood Contact Cement for a kids ride-on tire project and it worked exactly how you want contact cement to work: apply to both surfaces, let it tack up, press together, and it grabs hard. Once it makes contact it’s basically “done,” which is perfect when you need the tire material to stay put without creeping or peeling. I likely didn’t need the extra nails but used for completeness as a belt and suspenders approach. Bond has held up well to real use (rolling, turning, and kid abuse). The consistency is easy to spread and it flashes off quickly so you’re not waiting forever between coats. Tips that matter: prep is everything so clean/degrease the tire and scuff slick plastic/rubber, apply thin even coats to BOTH sides, and give it enough tack time before joining. If you need a reliable adhesive for tire-related DIY fixes/mods, this is a solid choice.

Contact cement works well at bonding a lot materials while remaining flexible, which makes it great at bonding rubbers, plastics and vinyl. It takes a little getting used to due to the application being an apply to both things, dry a while and then press together. It is all about the right texture and the wait always makes me feel like I am waiting too long, but the instant cementing happens when you wait long enough for the magic to happen. Although a smaller size, it is still a large size for the average person just hoping to fix 1 or 2 things. It seals well, bit I am not sure what it's shelf life will be after using it. It is a very specialized adhesive, if this is what you 'need' then it is worth the cost of having extra. If you do a lot of projects that require using it then it is a good value. Otherwise, some people will find it expensive. It is a matter of priorities on this item. It does have a stronger smell, as I believe it is solvent based and that might bother some people sensitive to those types of odors.

I've tried every spray on contact cement out there, and all of them pale in comparison to this stuff. Use it as directed and it's about as close to "professional grade" that you'll find. All of the repairs have result in "factory new" (and often better- given that I was repairing factory jobs) performance and durability. Buy a small bag of cheap disposable shop brushes, and you'll be all set for your next upholstery, shoe repair, etc. project.

I LOVE THIS STUFF !! I wish I would of bought yrs ago. I bought it to repair a pair of shoes. It did an amazing job but then I started using it to fix all kinds of things around my house. It only smells for a minute, dries quickly and works better than super glue types. The brush is easy to use and to manage the how much glue you need. I will buy the bigger can next time. A+++ product

I have been using this cement for several years for generally repairing soles of shoes that come apart. It has been the best way to do this with a hold that actually works. To attain maximum adhesion you need to coat both parts and wait at least 15 mins before putting it together. I usually also clamp it for a few hours also. I also use this cement for anything that needs to be glued, where Super Glues don’t fit the bill. Over the last 10 years the cost has really gone up and this package for 2 cans is the best value I have found. There are other cements out there, but usually they are more costly, which has discouraged me from trying them. I do know that Dap Wellwood Cement works very well and achieves a super strong hold.

Excellent glue, right price, fast delivery, handy container with applicator. Also: easy clean up. What more does one want in a contact glue?

Good old contact cement. Works excellent. I've been using this product since 1970 and always have a can or bottle around my home or shop.

I used this DAP welwood contact cement on a suggestion for bonding foam for a big cut out display. This works really well if you follow the directions

Muy buen pegamento, es contra agua y tiene excelente firmeza de adhesion

Had to wait longer than expected but it worked better than expected on plastic surfaces.

Terrible, doesn't work
