Aki Asahi's leather is sticky backed so no glue is required.

Thanks Bill. I've seen Pliobond recommended before but nobody has ever heard of it in shops over here. I could get some on line I guess.

Bob, thanks but I need some adhesive to stick back the old leather on my K2 after I replaced the film door. Ideally I'd like to be able to buy it in a shop here. It needs to be peelable. How about Copydex, I don't think it's strong enough?

If I could find a source for that pigeon-snot that magazines use to glue cover CDs to front pages I'd be happy. Takes a bomb to shift it, yet it peels happily.

@ Peter:

You don't need anything fancy to reattach the leather to your camera - PVA wood glue does the job nicely. You have to be kind of sharpish with alignment but it does work.

Seriously...

@ Dave:

This might be what you're looking for:

Used for affixing prints to album pages and can be rubbed off with a thumb.

Cheers for that, Bob. Looks like just the thing.
