Malcom,
The spray stuff gave about 1/2 or so time to work with it. I followed the
directions on the can and gave each piece three coats. By the time you
press it together it holds pretty much instantly. I needed no clamps or
anything, just pressed and held w/ my hands, thumbs, etc.. for a few
moments and that was it.
