Question contact cement

Hi, im just wondering if any of you have used contact cement to glue your tires? it seems like it should work good since it has some "rubberyness" to it.. thanks

i used to use it but if your not carefull you'll get it on the sides of your tires and will look like shat;) plus it wont create a very strong seal

Ive had really good luck with rubberized CA. It doesnt crack and flake like regular CA.

I lay down a bead in the wheel then insert the tire, then roate the tire on the wheel. since the glue takes a few minutes to dry You have time to tweek the way there resting on the wheel if youre not totally happy with it

Contact cement or rubber cement. Rubber cement stays flexible and rubbery. Contact cement is applied to both surfaces, you let it dry, and when both touch, its stuck permenantly. It's what they glue the laminate on the countertops with.

I've used the rubberized CA with good results also, seems to not flake off the regular or thick CA
