Hello all, hope those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving had
a good holiday.
The leatherette on the back of my trusty MX is slipping and
sliding and wants to peel off. What kind of adhesive should
I use to get it solidly back in place?
Where the heck is Cesar when you need him?
Cheers,
Cotty

Here I am! Gee is nice to be needed ;-)
I have used contact cement with no problems - I just make sure that it
is applied thin enough.
Now, to make Cotty happy ----
But do you really want to just put on the same old leatherette? Give
the camera a bit of panache, character if you will, make it say that it
is yours. Look at http://cameraleather.com for some possibilities.
I have two LX cameras redone in snake skin. I am thinking about doing a
third and possibly doing some other K-mount and screwmount cameras.
Look at
http://groups.msn.com/CesarsPhotography/lxen.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=996
for a peek of the two reskinned among the 'stock' LXen.
I also have a page at
http://cesar_abdul.home.mindspring.com/LX_skin.html that shows them when
I first reskinned them.
How time flies, they were reskinned four years ago!
Others have reskinned, so I am not alone in this :-)
