Evo-Stik Adhesive

I bought this to cover a piece of MDF with some fabric backed synthetic leather so it matched the look of my amplifier speaker cabinet to use as a baseboard to mount my two mini amplifiers.

It worked a treat, if you want 'instant' hold this is not the product, you apply it and it gives you plenty of working time to get any creases out and make an absolutely smooth surface, I let mine go off and cure overnight before checking it was stuck, so I can't say how long the working time was, but I took my time and was smoothing out for a good 10 minutes and although very sticky, was not stuck fast so you could still make alterations.

If you are perfect at using contact adhesive then the Evo-Stik 'Impact' product may be better for you as it goes off much quicker (in my experience this gives you one very quick reposition before you are stuck firm), but if you don't have a high level of skill with contact adhesive this is a bit more forgiving and lets you correct any mistakes before it is stuck fast.

It does have a tendency to go very thick nearer the end of the can (due to the solvent evaporating), but if you sit the can in some hot water (obviously after removing the lid) that helps it to flow a little better.

I am writing this as I couldn't believe it got a 1 star rating I have used this on fabric, real leather, synthetic leather and wood and it is great, just allow it enough time to cure.

I tried this adhesive only to find it didn't live up to its name. It didn't stick a few different things I tried it on. Very disappointed. Very easy to use it just didn't work
