Learn how to use Weldwood Contact Cement to complete a variety of projects. Projects include a DIY laminate countertop, applying a kickplate to a door, and a DIY wall organizer.
the time it takes to get tacky can be from 10 minutes to 2 hrs, depending on the contact cement. any time after that you can put the pieces together and trim right away
My late husband would use it on his "rubbers". Never had a problem with it slipping off when it got "moist" or when he the "shrinkage factor" happened! ! ! ! What a man he was!
Great tip to turn off the pilot of the hot water heater when working with glues. What about the table lamp? If someone tripped on the cord, knocked over the lamp, broke the bulb, there's gonna' be a mushroom cloud... DIY projects are extremely dangerous, lol.
@@ruseventyfour2948 Ah! I forgot about electrostatic discharge. Probably best to also remove your clothes and any carpet in the room to avoid self immolation. Joking aside, DAP is an awesome glue. It's cheap, easy to work with, and strong as hell if you apply it right. It's cheap too, and inexpensive!
@@ruseventyfour2948 pro tip: Also you better make sure to turn off your pacemaker if applicable because the shocking from the could ignite the fumes....
Can it work like fiberglass....i want to make a parabola out of mylar by blowing it like a bubble, then apply something that will harden to it, to make a parabolic mirror. I'm thinking a thick ass layer of crazy ass glue like this but something like bondo seems better

Hi, can this be used for car headliners? I’m wondering about the non flammable version.

Nothing I can see here on the non-flammable product. Why? That's the one I want to use! Does it even work?

Could you use a balloon? Glue or epoxy 95% let it setup and pop the balloon pull out the debris and finish the shape?
What does the word "ass" have to do with anything?
