"BTW never, never, never, ever use any contact cement --- except water-=
based -- for plastic keytops. Unless you want to watch them dissolve ..=
."
 
Where the heck did you get that bit of misinformation!??? Contact cemen=
t has been used forever, by one of our locals. (I used it for several y=
ears, as well.) He refuses to use anything else. His work is impeccable=
! No warping or any other signs of warping, etc. The only reason I quit=
 using him, is that I don't like the look I get/got from clients whose =
keytops were falling off, after only a few years!!! Hence, I do my own =
keytops and I use PVC-E, (from Schaff). It definately takes a lot more =
time to do them this way, but the tops will stay on! Worth the extra ti=
me involved, IMO.
