Gluing VegTan leather on polypropylene boxes

(1/2) > >>

PAMuzzleshooter:
My brother bought these boxes for his grandkids.  He wants me to glue VegTan leather name tags on the tops.  Boxes are polypropylene.

What would be best glue for this.  I use Barge for most of my gluing.

Thanks.

Contact Cement.

River City John:
It will help to score the surface of the box under the leather tags a bit to give "tooth" and better adherence.

I have found that today's Barge doesn't hold very well compared to the old formulation. Master Contact Cement holds like Barge used to. It's intended for shoe construction and repair. I've switched to that for all my leather purposes.

Definitely roughen the area to be glued like River City John says.
