You may have something. I failed to mention that I've had poor =

OK, we have an interesting conflict in opinion. Might it have =
anything to do with the contact cement itself?=20
We got a new countertop on our kitchen cabinets around 1990, and =
everything is starting to come apart now. A cabinetmaker said there was =
bad glue at one point. That may not have affected the small amounts we =
use, but if it did, that might account for the variety of opinions.=20
