Review: This stuff is amazing!! and easy to use! Fixed up my running shoes and patched my shorts in minutes. - I bought and first used this a month and a half ago, gluing new rubber to the bottoms of my beloved old Brooks Glycerin running shoes, then patching some clothing and adding a handle to a water bottle. I was immediately impressed, but wanted to wait to see how the fixes held up over time before I wrote a review. ' In the 3rd photo (photo on the right), you see my running shoe repair some 4mm black shoe sole rubber; 2 strips on the left, 3 on the right. The shoe with 2 black strips was done 6 weeks and 100 miles ago; the repair I did today has 3 black strips. You can see the rubber has worn smooth on the left, whereas on the right, it still has treads. Under heavy use, the cement has held firm. . The photo in the middle is of my favorite shorts - ancient and disintegrating but I love them. The patch material was some cloth tape (I think people might use it for hemming)? Two rectangular patches are marked with little black arrows to the left of each patch. I ignored the Permatex instructions on the tube, applying a small smear of glue around each hole, smearing it around a bit with the cloth tape and pressing them together for about a minute. The glue on my fingers balled up like rubber cement and just rubbed off. The next day, I applied a little more cement under the patch corners with a flat toothpick and held that in place for another minute. Voila! The cement dried flexible and has held to this day. ' In the 1st photo (most recent cement use on the left), you are looking at a water bottle I modified about a month ago so I could carry it on long runs. I attached the handle (strapping material with velcro closure) using 4 black zip ties. This is where I was most impressed with the cement. After I made 2 loops with the 4 zip ties and tightened them around the water bottle, rather than cut off the ends of the 4 zip ties, I bent them back on themselves so as to make a small loop and glued them down. Remarkably, although it took substantial pressure to bend those ties 360 degrees, the Permatex cement made a solid bond after only a few minutes of hold time. When I am not holding it, the water bottle hangs on clips (one of which is attached to the zip tie loop) as I run and yet the cement is still holding.
Review: Great Product-Fixed my problem - Trying to put a metal pull on my full size glass mirror that enters into my walk in closest. I tried many different products but they did not hold for very long. This was the best product for my purpose.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What color is this after it cures?**
A: The color of ice, the color of "clear" silicone sealant, etc., may let some light through but would not want to try and see through it.  It is the best contact cement of any I have tried.  Longterm, to prevent a tube from drying out, keep it in the freezer and defrost each time before using.
I like it because it spreads on thin and because the tube keeps its from drying and getting more viscous.

**Q: will this glue ceramic pieces together? Thank you!**
A: It will certainly stick to ceramic, but it is not as strong a bond as some other glues.  It is more flexible, which is great for leather and other soft materials.  Superglue might be better depending on what you need.

**Q: Do you need to use a respirator or a special mask with this glue?**
A: For me there were hardly any fumes at all from this product. I used it at my kitchen table in small amounts so I didnt use any special masks.

**Q: Is this product safe to use on plastic? I am replacing a window in my convertible top and the zipper needs to be sealed and glued to the canvas.**
A: Usu. some sewing is used.  You can test some on a piece of plastic to be sure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product-Fixed my problem

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did the Trick
*by M***I on September 10, 2025*

This stuff worked great. I was using this to repair my instrument, and had to secure a new cork onto the neck. Very easy to use, don't put out too much of the product and spread lightly to avoid having spots that would overflow. This stuff hardens really well, and it would be a pain to adjust it after it solidifies. Did the trick for me. The container is rather small, though, so keep in mind that when thinking about how much you need, it's also pretty sticky.
