I've done several laminate and veneer jobs using contact cement with success. This time around I'm trying to use laminate on the surround of a shower in our small trailer: 3 sides of a 2x3 tub and seal the corners with silicone. It's a very tight space and difficult to work, and my first attempt to apply a 36"x60" piece failed (not perfect first contact and had to pull the piece to adjust, which resulted in breaking it).
So now the wall has already been coated with contact cement and I have to wait until I buy another sheet before I cut and glue it on.
What should I do about the wall on which I had applied contact cement? Should I try to remove it or simply apply a fresh coat to it (and the new sheet)?
I am using this (solvent based) glue:
