YouTube video by Renia about Aquilim SG and Aquilim GL
Notes
- substitutes for classic rubber cements
- repositionable, reopenable bonds
Aquilim GL
- weaker at first
- very similar to 315
- slower to develop full strength
- can split apart for half to a full hour
- final bond about as strong
- don’t use as the only bond
- e.g. in upper construction to hold for sewing
- doesn’t clog needles
- can use as contact adhesive, but slower
Aquilim SG
- pressure-sensitive adhesive
- never becomes permanent, never cures
- can pull apart weeks, months later
- secure with stitching or another mechanical method
- paper, cardboard, leather board will pull apart before adhesive does, so can work as permanent adhesive
- leather, rubber, foams works as removable
- can reposition
- upper construction, leather goods
- don’t have to get it right on the first shot
- works one-sided dry (not one-sided wet)
- let dry until completely clear
- extremely tacky
- will hold grain sides of leather, other smooth surfaces
- e.g. for broguing, without need to remove adhesive from holes
