Subject: Adhesive for vulcanised rubber
I wondered if anyone had any suggestions for adhesives that can be used for Vulcanised rubber. I have a rubber truncheon from 1940's that has become brittle and snapped in half so I need to adhere it back together. I know it is not happy with acetone and alcohols but can't see any evidence of what people use to adhere this material together.
