Wrinkles Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Those more experienced than me... A label came off the nylon grill cover cloth of my Spendor LS3/5A. The Spendor label is aluminum 1/2 inch by 1 inch rectangular shape. It is maybe 1/32 inch in thickness at most. Old glue has a dried elasticity to it, but no stickiness. I was oiling the Rosewood cabinets when the rag snagged it. Suggestions on glue type? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 When I refurbished some missions several years ago I glued the logos to the new grill cloth. Unfortunately I cant remember if I used the same super glue from parts express for the woofer surrounds or if I just used a hot glue gun. Either one should work.

Wrinkles Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Oldtimer, More info.. From a Spendor website, the grill cloth is made up of mono filament plastic weaved together and is called Tagon. It is not made anymore. The grill material is resistant to oil, water, dirt. The tackiness or stretchiness of the glue remnant reminds me of the adhesive glue you put on the back of kitchen counter type laminant. Thanks for your ideas.

mustang guy Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I like 3M Super 77. You spray it on, let it get tacky, then stick it. It is also great for replacing grille fabric. It is sold everywhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrinkles Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Mustang Guy, For the 3M Super77, do you spray it on both the label and the cloth OR just the label? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Whatever you use, put it on the label, stick it on. Don't over think this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace168516 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Marshall (aka groomslakearea51) uses duco cement for applying logos...it is not easy to find locally (atleast by me), but worked great on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Spray it on the label. Let it get tacky. Spray it again. When it is tacky the seond time, stick it on. Make sure it is very clean before you start, and you may wish to scarify it with some fine sandpaper to provide a better mechanical bond.

Groomlakearea51 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 If not Duco, then 3M77, but on both objects and allow to sit for 2-3 minutes, then stick together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
