Contact cement is usually the best option for foam type applications.
Mask and spray contact surfaces w/ super 77 or 90
try it first to see if the glue will eat the foam
Yeah concerns about the glue eating the foam was why I asked here. My google search was not fruitful
Ive done this repair and the spray adhesive didn't eat foam on my Smiths. I used Super 77
Remove lens, clean foam, let dry, wrap frame w/ foil and put blue tape to contact frame ONLY
Thanks I will give it a go. Might still have some 3m super77 laying around
I used my wife's Leathercraft Cement. Dried clear and no deteriorating foam.
