Which Glue for Ivory Keytops?
By Rick Inzero

Hi, all!  Now that I'm actually ready to do this (well, I've got *1*
replacement ivory -- only about 25 more to obtain somewhere!) ...

In reviewing old responses from my "how do you get the ivory off"
question from a few months ago, I see that I don't know exactly what
kind of glue to use to glue the new (old stock) ivory on with.  The
responses mentioned were

  "CA glue" (no idea what the CA is)
  "contact cement" (what's a good brand?)
  "glue wafers" (huh?)

Any clearer or more specific advice for an adhesive would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Rick Inzero
