I came across this HH-66 Toluene Free Vinyl Cement, in the 4 oz. can. After doing extensive research online for my specific project. I purchased a used, but in excellent condition, full size, tonneau cover for my F150. I have a tool box in the rear and I wanted to cover the exposed bed. The tonneau cover had a length of 72" and i had to shorten it down to 45". As a handyman by trade and an RC hobbyists at heart. I took the tonneau frame apart and put it back together, almost achieving a factory finnish. 1. I performed a small test on two strips of vinyl. I didn't clean them (intentionally) because I wanted to test the cement on unclean surfaces to check the level of adherence. The cement bonded phenomenally! 2. Prep your surfaces/wipe both sides with alcohol before applying the cement. 3. Please note: The cement dries as you brush it on, if possible, I suggest working on small manageable sections like 5" to 10" sections at a time, brush on quickly. Once a desired section is complete, move on to the next piece immediately! "Do not waite to bond the pieces together after brushing the cement on them. Once the 2nd strip is covered in the cement start bonding the ends together so they don't dry-up on you in the process....if they dry, your going to be left with a weak/ poor bond, the ends may lift or you will end up with air bubbles trapped between the vinyl 4. Wetter is better! You need both sides to be tacky wet, not tacky dry. I can't stress this enough 5. Press and hold for a few minutes, I used duct tape, blue painters tape and a variety of different size binder clips for my application and it worked great, get creative 6. Take your time, my specific project took roughly 3 days. I worked on it mornings and late evenings. I wanted to finnish my project but I wasn't in a rush and it turned out great! 7. The smell wasn't overwhelming for me, (I have worked with an array of chemicals) but if your sensitive to smells, yeah, it's best if you work outdoors, a garage, a shed, or a porch or just crack open a window. 8. My seams bonded extremely well, tight, no water leaks, no issues, no lifted ends. 9. Clean up is a snap! If you don't have thinner just use your 91% rubbing alcohol on a rag and wipe everything clean, it will break down the cement the same way. If you made it this far, I hope the small details described in my review will help you during your next project (s) i would use this on flexible thick vinyl products, not the cheap flimsy stuff. Preferably on tonneau covers, pool covers, air mattresses, vinyl tarp repairs, etc. Just to name a few. Also, if you intend to use this cement on PVC pipes, don't! Just go to your big box store, they sell a kit specifically designed for PVC pipes. Reminder: Always try a test piece first, before moving forward. This way you will be able to move forward confidently. Take care all, just a handymans honest perspective.

This cement worked perfectly for adding new Bimini top mount points to our inflatable boat. It's held up great so far.

Perfect adherence to our paddle board. No leaks since we used this for the repair and the board had a pretty significant tear. Used in conjunction with these patches. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B61JNV9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Worked for what I needed it for but still had a strong smell. It held up well for about 6 months and I need to redo

This stuff is perfect for all my vinyl fixings. Why throw an item away or waste money purchase a new item when it can be easily fixed and be made stronger with this glue? It's paid got itself. Just made sure you store it proper so it will last and not dry out.

Nice glue to fix my vinyl stuff.....

Product worked great and I think my application asked a lot of it. I used it to repair the vinyl handle of a hot tub cover. I used it to glue a piece of nylon webbing to repair the ripped vinyl handle. Scuffed the nylon and glued it to the vinyl handle. So far so good!

I bought this because it's supposedly good for gluing PVC or similar materials. It didn't work on the first try So I thought maybe it was me and I needed more product. I tried again and added more. The instructions say 5-7 min but it's not true, I had to hold that for almost 1 hour and my arms were hurting so I had to stop. It dried but seems to be separating (see video of when I stopped pressing it) Where the pieces join together, it leaves an ugly mark, even if you clean off the excess because the glue has already touched it and ruins the paint around it.
