I ended up picking up a medium CA glue and it helped when I needed to bond plastic to plastic. Haven't tried it on rubber to rubber. I'll pick up some E6000 too next time just so I'm prepared for anything. Thanks!

On Monday, I used E6000 on the vinyl-like tracks in the Takom Chinese (Japanese built) 1/16 Type 94 tankette. I have them clamped now, but will check them later today. If the E6000 doesn't work well (as it did on my 1/35 tanks) I'm a monkey's uncle.
