Foamie adhesive

[Zone Drifter]

What do they use to adhere the foam to the bolts? I've been trying different adhesives but nothing seems to work as well as what they used at the factory. (yes I am cleaning and prepping the parts, not just throwing them together.)

Anyone else have a good product to use for this?

You can try Gorilla Glue gel or Gorilla Clear Grip. I glued my foamie back in 09 using Gorilla Glue Flexible I think it was called at the time and it has not come off yet. I think Gorilla Clear grip is the new name for it going by their website.

Anything that will stick to metal and neoprene will work. It needs to be flexible enough to prevent breaking due to impact, and it needs to be a chemical compound that will not eat the neoprene. Airgun designs used to use Superglue. Most cyanoacrylate glues are rated for neoprene use and will stand up to impact.

Loctite 380. Someone smarter than all of us figured this out already...

^^^Yep. Loctite 380 is a great cyanocrylate adhesive.
