Shoo Goo for bike repairs

Got a tube of this for the first time in years. Fixed the soles of my
favorite Aussie boots very easily. Then I thought--this stuff has got
to have bike applications. So I patched a scuffed hole on a cheap but
very comfy Velo saddle, so water won't get to the padding. Also
patched a few rips on my city bike's cork tape. Not sexy stuff--but
fixes problems. I've heard of using the black version to retread
tubies, but that's probably urban legend.

Is there any difference between Goop and Shoe Goo? They look the same,
have similar consistencies, and both smell vaguely of feline urine
(before curing).

I'm unfamiliar with both but a search for "shoe goo vs goop"

Shoo Goo works well for reducing wear on and improving the traction of
the hard polymer soles on SiDi MTB shoes.

Are your cats ****ing complex carbon chains? More importantly: are you
huffing the fumes, and is it a wicked buzz?

Sherm works in asphalt.....Goop's carrier is toulene et al.

riders emailed thanks for saving saddles. when the first coat begins
tearing off, trim with razor and recoat.
The 1st spare Spec saddle here......lets see hmmmm left stern near
tilt alarm box......is on its 4-5 recoating at 12 years and maybe
14,000 miles ?

The different tubes are different mixes but same stuff. For saddles
Shoe Goo isnot best-too stiff-try Sports Goop. Auto Goop is very stiff
for dripless apps.

when you glue think try Seattle Fabrics for nylon and NRS kayak for
other surfaces. Then go to the muthaload- 3M - and over to Graingers
to see what costs.

SF's nylon glue is incroyable.

yeah , forgotto.
GOOP isnot glue, at least not like contact cement, its more like an
advanced state mucilage.
No, it does not adhere as glue two sides, to tubes or patches
