Hi Mark

Actually 3m77 was one of the first things I tried but it doesn't really work 
that well on fabric. I've found you need to spray both pieces (in this case 
the coroplast and the fabric) then let them dry just a bit then contact them 
together. Getting a nice layer on the fabric isn't really easy. Anyhow when 
I did a pull test I wasn't satisfied. BTW, I was using the new formula. I 
haven't found the old stuff for several years now. I used to use it to spray 
EPP before covering my foamy airplanes. I've also tried 3M90 with little 
improvement.

The Toluol can from Home Depot lists a real witches brew as contents but in 
fact doesn't list Toluene specifically. I suspect it is a formulation 
intended to replace Toluene for some applications. But it does act as a 
pretty good solvent for GOOP.

I'm really careful with this stuff. I mix and cure outside and always wear a 
3M chemical mask.

But I'm no chemist...

thanks
