    Glad to help :drunk:It's perplexing as various Shoe Goo, Lexel etc. tubes cost a boatload of money, but a tube of the PL S30 goes for a whole $6.00 and is as tough as nails. I've used it to secure underwater fittings on boats, seal roof flashing, fix wading boots etc and it gets the job done. Mind you, 3M 5200 is supposedly "better", but it's as runny as skim milk, takes forever to dry and doesn't have the impact resistance of PL.
