yep, i know that bit been doing it all week

, would you say spraying it uses more or less contact cement? I have a spray gun appropriate for paint etc with my compressor, would i use it with that with some thinners? What sort of thinner should i use

I don't have the space and ventilation for a spray gun and can't advise on proper mixing procedures. I have been told it works better than the aerosol can adhesive I currently use - oh well.

hehe, its a bit slow, but a brush and a 4 litre tin of the stuff seems to work well enough for me, and thanks to the fact that contact is a bit gooey, there is almost no cleanup involved

Attached is a macro photo of the job i did trimming the speaker carpet (changing blades every 12in or so for the recesses)
