p.1 #1 · Need best glue for Rollie leatherette


The leather ? covering is starting to peel off my Rollie. This camera has been stored in my humidity controlled safe for several years and is like new. Just one corner on the back lid is beginning to peel and I want to fix it. Any suggestions?

You might try Pliobond. It works great on camera grip rubber and other nonporous materials.

Fish glue. Art supply and better hardware stores have it (e.g. Lee Valley). It's tacky and dries well. Also, it's water-soluble, and so if you have more delamination in the future, you can remove the first spot with a couple drops of water. It'll soften up and come right off. No hard spot to deal with, when trying to work around a patch with permanent cement.
