    Glue for goggles foam

    I have a couple pairs of goggles that are perfectly good except the foam is fubar. Either outer sweat foam has separated from inner foam or foam has separated from frame. Anyone successfully reglued the foam?

    Contact cement is usually the best option for foam type applications.

    Remove lens, clean foam, let dry, wrap frame w/ foil and put blue tape to contact frame ONLY

    I used my wife's Leathercraft Cement. Dried clear and no deteriorating foam.
