How to glue back computer rubber feet?

[AnitaPeterson]

Hi there,

My Antec case has lost one of its rubber feet (apparently it had very little glue on it to begin with (nice QC, Antec!!!), and none of the stores in my area seems to sell those.

Has anyone here successfully glued these back on their case? What kind of glue did you use? I don't think Superglue would be useful in this particular instance (flexible rubber over painted metal)....

Any kind of glue stronger than Elmer's should work - pick up a bottle of brush-on adhesive from a local hardware store.

Epoxy resin could probably glue the moon to the earth if you had enough. Use it and be careful .

would this glue work? anyone try it before?

Contact cement should work. Just apply to both surfaces (the foot piece and the case).

Just go to the hardware store and find the first one that comes in a brush-on bottle. Bonus points if it says "WARNING - BONDS SKIN ON CONTACT"

Try Super-Glue?

You might not think of this but the toughest glue I have found is the kind they use to glue tile to the floor. I had some stick on tile in my bathroom and used this stuff and it is incredibly effective. You put it on and wait till it darkens and then you stick the two parts together. It is not that expensive.

Could be epoxy.

Just get a small tube of liquid nails.
