An Amazing Product!,
There are a handful of “miracle” products out there that end up exceeding expectations in a marvelous way. This is one of them. I picked up a tube of this stuff at the local “variety store” to re-attach the sole of a pair of nearly new Adidas running shoes (I’m not giving those 5 stars!). Two years later, the shoe is beginning to fall apart, but the sole, yes sir, is still hanging tough. I’ve used this product in a number of different applications where I used to use 100% silicon adhesive with the major difference that they NEVER need to be re-glued once glued with SHOE GOO. You better not want to un-glue what you apply this stuff to, because you won’t. Anyway, quite the amazing product and a solid 5 stars. Every household should have a tube for those tough jobs.

|Here are the missing instructions,
Instructions:
(1) Make sure your Goo purchase is recent. The shelf life in your garage is not long.
(2) Have both the shoes and Goo at room temperature. There are handling and curing problems if you deviate from this ideal.
(3) Lay out more newspapers than you think and get a few paper-towels handy.
(4) Buy a big bag of rubber bands unless you have quite a few sizes already (important).
(5) Using a small wire-brush (toothbrush style is best) clean out the area to be glued. Do this outside. Get out all the dirt and sand, and also rough-up the surfaces. You can’t glue to dirt, and any little pebbles will be in there forever. Shoe must be completely dry (place held open over a heater vent for 24-hours if need be).
(6) Goo glue it up. Be generous, but not too generous. Be particular careful to fully coat both surfaces at the edges of the shoe.
(7) Rub the outside surfaces to squish the Goo around inside the sole.
(8) Start putting on the rubber bands. You need a lot. Space them every quarter inch or closer on the glued edge.
(9) The shoe parts have a tendency to open up, even with the rubber bands, so check again in 10 and 30 minutes. Add more rubber bands if needed.
(10) Let sit inside for 24 hours. Or more.
Voila! Fixed shoes.
I clean my fingers with paper towels. You might try something nastier, if you want.
PS: This review is not “certified purchase” because the SKU I bought seems to be discontinued on Amazon.
