No, it is not regular contact cement. It is a spray cement designed
by 3M to be used on vinyl, closed cell foam, and other upholstery
materials. You can also buy this by the can at your hardware store, it is
called Super 77 by 3M. There is also an even tackier version of this
product available. At Home Depot, you will find them in the aisle with
paint rollers, masking tapes, and adhesives. You spray each piece that
you are going to adhere, allow about 15 minutes or so for the product to become
tacky, partially dry, and then place your items together for adhesion and smooth
out as necessary. The product should be dry enough that you can still move
remove the items from each other if needed to replace or realign (that is...if
no significant pressure has been applied), and yet still wet enough that you
will get good adhesion. Once you apply significant pressure, don't plan
on trying to remove them, and allow to dry thoroughly. Unless you are
planning on doing a significant amount of this, I wouldn't see the purpose in
buying a spray gun set up personally...but that is just me.
