Will look for the lubricant. Is cleaning off the hull for field reglueing possible ?

3M No. 847 came today. A not odorous/highly volatile thickened commercial rubber adhesive. Viscosity seems to be a step up from running contact cement. Using 847 with a belief that yes we ARE gluing together not hoping to.

First up, NB GoreTex sneakers for Chantal. Soles and nose from sides seperations. Warm molasses viscosity visibly flowed down and in, taped over with Duck masking tape so as we can get it off. Will test tomorrow, search for tubings tonight.

Serviceable NB's would pay for the McMaster-Carr tube. First run of the GT sneaker.

The Solstice with my ham handed repair leaks 1.5-2+ Qts to the rear per 30 minuts roll practice.
