Troubleshooting
Glue is not sticking.
Ensure surfaces are clean and dry. Apply a thin, even layer and allow the glue to become tacky before bonding. Make sure you are using it on leather or vinyl and not a different material.
Glue is visible after drying.
Apply a thinner layer of glue. Avoid using too much. Remove excess glue immediately with a damp cloth before it dries.
Bond is not flexible.
Ensure the glue is fully dried. If the bond is still not flexible, the wrong type of glue may have been used.
