I started a different thread yesterday about a Ryobi S500A finish sander. I want to replace the pad. I found the guys that make the Preppin Weapon (awesome sanding block, BTW) sell the backing material separately here:

They say to use 3M Number 90 Spray Adhesive. I could buy a can ($12 at Home Depot) or instead try to brush on some regular contact (solvent-based) I already have. This stuff:

The TDB for the Weldwood contact cement says it is neoprene-rubber based, but also says it can be used for bonding rubber. This stuff (the Weldwood) won't melt the neoprene rubber, will it?
I'm trying to avoid a giant mess, and also don't want to spend any more money than I have to. I kinda doubt I'd find any other uses for the 3M Number 90, so I'd like to avoid buying $12 worth of spray adhesive and wasting most of it.
