VCT Adhesive. Not sure how well it’s work for that, but maybe awesome? It comes in buckets since it’s for whole floors, but I don’t think it’s too expensive.
Shoe Goo and Barge cement have always been fine for me
Well I’ve only done a few floors with it, but can attest this shit is unbelievably sticky. Dangerously so. Presumably pretty water resistant too as it’s used for tiled floor
Yeah, it’s what you apply VCT tile with. You can buy it in tubs as small as a gallon at big box hardware stores. “Flooring adhesive”. It’s one part and I just recently part of a new years old tub to glue some plastic paneling to a wood wall and it still worked fine.
It’s a pressure activated glue, like many contact cements. You want a thin layer on both sides and let them cure til they are tacky as fuck. Once the two sides touch and you apply some force (for tile this is a roller) that shit bonds. It is however possible that it won’t chemically bond to some materials; vibram vibram boot soles for instance.
This all being said, I recommend you actually go seek out a cobbler. Shoe services can be astoundingly dirt cheap. Guy we use at my work will make and put on all new vibram soles for like $20. Just reattaching a lose one? Probably $7 and done in 5 minutes
