what glue did you use?

you need a strong glue, one that really stinks! iirc timebond works ok.

3M used to market Fast Tack (it may be quoted as just a number now) its function was aimed at car upholstery owing to the high internal temperatures that can be achieved (even in the UK) inside a car in summer.
