I have some old Ihagee stuff… a original Exa body (version with leather not textured nylon) where one of the little leatherette “tadpoles” on the bottom is coming up, and an Exakta prism finder with the triangle leatherettes on top that’s doing the same. It’s very supple leather for its age and I would rather like to reattach it. Am truly not worried about resale value these are lifers.

Is there a commercially available glue that can be used with good results? Leather to metal is a weird case. Obviously CA glue is right out.
