Thanks Much. It sounds seems similar to the Matte Medium I have used on the track I built here; I cut the stuff by half with water when I laid it 10 years ago. The difference looks to be that the Aleens can be used for bonding a plastic or metal car side to a wood or metal roof. DJE

I use both regular and super tacky depending on the need for nearly immediate fixation. Primarily I use the stuff for affixing roadbed and then flextrack and Fast Tracks jig built turnouts to the roadbed. I am using S scale vinyl roadbed. Aleens holds well enough that I have had no problems with things moving when I don't want them to move. On the other hand, when mistakes are made, track work can be pried up without damage and glue residue easily cleaned up for the next try. Aleens dries clear but unlike Elmer's it does not dry hard, remaining somewhat rubbery. Good stuff for not transmitting sound. Also, unlike the wood glues, it seems to stick equally well to all materials - wood, plastic, metal, glass. My subroadbed is the extruded poly insulation ( pink stuff). Aleens attacks the poly a little bit but not enough to be an issue. I have even removed vinyl roadbed from the poly and successfully repositioned it. Good Stuff!
