Superglue and leather

[EddieM]

+1 here for contact adhesive, ask any upholsterer or local shoe repairs, all use contact adhesive. Superglue was developed and designed for fast adhesion of surfaces with little flex as mentioned it's too brittle for a flexible material.

Hmm.. it's used extensively in medical applications.

That's a very good point however even then its purpose is a non permanent bond for the same reason due to movement it will lose adhesion. And you'll find the adhesive used in medical procedures isnt a tube of loctite sg3 from your local newsagent.

I've come across gorilla glue contact adhesive which seems to allow some repositioning.

Tack time on Evo-Stick is about 5-10 mins at most. As I stated, you have to be perfect on positioning because you don't get a second chance.
