Foam pad velcro repair?

[froggy47]

Pad is still good, but the velcro is peeling off the back. Is there some particular glue/whatever that I can use to reattach?

Thanks!

Try a light bead of gorilla glue.It should work.

Thanks, just a bead around the edge, or try to get some in towards the center?

Add some to the center too...

I'm a big fan of Gorilla Glue but I don't know if I've used it for re-attaching Velcro to foam. It's a glue that expands as it cures for whatever that's worth. I have used 2-part epoxy with great success, other's have used some kind of glue used in crafts and scrap-booking? Can't think of the name.

Goop glue might work too as it's pretty tuff...

I use Auto Goop, works great so far, been run through the torture as the other pads. Ran a bead around the outside of it, none needed in the center as of yet. I have another pad that is getting "loose" in a spot or two and need to do it before too long.

I have used 3M Super 77 spray and have had no problems.

I've used Gorilla glue. Use a small amount, spread it on the velcro and place a regular sized hardcover book on it overnight.
