Any arts/crafts supply store should have some. Possibly any place that sells office supplies.

If all else fails, check the internet.

In the UK, this is also known as Contact Adhesive.

Yep Halfords for a little tube you can carry around with you in your pocket.

Or, if you have an arts and crafts shop, you can get a tin of no-wrinkle contact adhesive for about £1.85

Be careful. If you want rubber cement for the property it has of being able to dry out once applied and not stick to stuff until you press it against another bit of rubber cement (as used in card to envelope or a teleport envelope) then the rubber cement you get in bicycle kits or contact adhesive won't do. You will need "real" rubbert cement - usually imported from the US. cards4magic stock it and someone earlier mentioned world-of-magic (although I haven't tried the one they have and so can't vouch for it).

Copydex and other substitutes are nowhere near as good. Messier, stickier and not as good a "delayed instant bond".

Depends on a few factors but my instant answer would be no, it won't. It must be see thorugh aswell as being string but not too strong. Aswell as this its only any good if it sticks when in contact with itself. You could find yourself in a painful situation if you plan to use it for any routines that involve it being put on skin. As has been suggected before, punture repair kits are the way forward.

Hope that helps

:shock: Erm, really? Because, why would they call it "contact adhesive" otherwise - surely that's the precise quality you buy it for?

Contact adhesive IS rubber cement, just with another name. As far as i am aware i think seige may be getting some big pots of this stuff on NUMS quite soon if you wanna wait for them :?
