Seems to me, that when I used C/A glue to get hammer felt back in place, I had to use the C/A glue twice. If you just use one coat, it soaks in too fast, so not enough is left to bond. Or did I just coat both surfaces, I can't remember which. Anyway, it worked, where ithadn't the first time. John Ross Windsor, Nova Scotia.
