I use 'Weldwood' brand contact cement in this area.

Friends,


We're replacing the mosquito netting and velcro on the sunshade/screen for
the skylight in the poptop.  The velcro thats glued to the roof is in good
shape but is starting to pull away from the roof.  Have any of you found
some adhesive that does a great job of regluing this back up again?


Back on the farm when I was a kid my dad fixed canvas with something called
"tear grease" (or something like that) It was a great adhesive for that
application but I don't know where to find it, whether it will work in this
case, or if something better has been invented in the last 30 years.


Thanks for the help!
