 Anyone know what the latest adhesives are that Magnepan recommends for repairing delamination? Are they still recommending 3M super 77 adhesive and topping it with 30-NF? Or is there something newer they now recommend?
Any help is greatly appreciated

 Magnepan's instructions kind of suck and need to be revised. They say to use Super 77 for any repair, but it doesn't make sense and is not even possible for small repairs. Use 30nf for repairing spots. Put one coat on the mylar and one coat on the under side of the wire and press together after 30 minutes or so. Then follow up with a light coat of 30nf on top of everything. Super 77 is just for tacking down large sections prior to a coat of 30nf. I feel like they recommend this because it's easy, but you can do better by using 30nf imo.
