I am now going to test 3 different adhesives on some plastic sheet with 3 different samples, and subject them to heat, cold and condensation.

The adhesives are :-

1) Aliphatic
2) PVA
3) Evo Stick contact adhesive (solvent free)and its made in Stafford.

I will also test the double sided tape on the edge of the fabric.

Wish me luck

InterestingBigGrin - I assume this is instead of the dolls house carpet? or is this for another as-yet undisclosed mod? Unsure

now the samples:-

1) Aliphatic (I expect this one to lose)
2) Contact (strong contender)
3) PVA
4) Double sided strip onthe outside
Contact on the inside

I will now expose them to heat and cold (fridge)

The Aliphatic failed almost at once, but it left a clear film of dry adhesive on the back of the fabric to which I added contact adhesive, so we will see
