Lowes, Home Depot, etc.

Its specially designed for high pressure, high temperature bonding of rubbers, alloys & canvas, and dries without residue. Perfect for your application, we use it on all of our recones. Fully cured, it will withstand 22PSI of strain.

Dont use an epoxy, they can't be easily removed at a later date if you need to recone again. Superglues will leave a white residue thanks to the curing accelerators in them, and they can attack foam surrounds, and silicon based adhesives dont have a high enough bond strength

You can get CA at most hobby shops get the THICK CA much easier to work with and will not run as easily.

I use goop to attach all my dustcaps. Dries clear and works very well. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Scottie J is actually the one who suggested goop to me if that gives you any idea of what kind of abuse it can take. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Could have just used goop like I told you to. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Goop works fine it is cheaper and holds very well. Plus unless you get some black CA Glue when it dries it will leave a white residue. Even a good Epoxy would work.
