Patrick - yes I think that’s it. 

I’m no expert on adhesives but the shoe goo packaging states it’s fit for 
leather, rubber, vinyl and canvas applications. Like you I’ve used shoe goo for 
its intended purpose many times in the past, so I was surprised how gummy it 
was after 24 hours of curing. Must behave differently on porous surfaces?

Anyway I ended up on the shoe goo wiki:

“Shoe Goo can be used on rubber, wood, glass, concrete and metal.

The product is also used by hobbyists in lieu of rubber cement as an assembly 
adhesive for radio controlled models of cars and aircraft, repair of Lexan 
bodies, and as a waterproofing agent for model boats.“

And from the rubber cement wiki:

“Rubber cement is favored in art applications where easy and damage-free 
removal of adhesive is desired. Because rubber cements are designed to peel 
easily or rub off without damaging the paper or leaving any trace of adhesive 
behind, they are ideal for use in paste-up work where excess cement might need 
to be removed. It also does not become brittle as paste does.”

Hobbyists unite!
