Trying to repair the foot on the extension laddder I use
in the hangar.

It needs a new rubber foot.

I'm riviting a 1/4" piece or rubber to the aluminum foot.
Then I want to glue a 1/8" piece to the that to cover the
rivet heads.
... Crazy glue of some kind?


Loctite makes a product called "Black Max", which is a modified
cyanoacrylate adhesive made just for this purpose. It's the best
thing I've ever found for gluing rubber to metal.
