PSA Glue

I saw in a recent MicroMark flyer a product called PSA or pressure sensitive adhesive. It's supposed to be good for gluing glass in. Has anyone tried it out yet?

PSA has been around a long time.  You can get it at any hardware store.  It is usually used for gluing large flat surfaces, like wood veneer.  Don't know about glass, never tried it, and I never had a need for it in the modeling hobby.

It sounds like "contact cement" to me.  Usually you need a pretty good surface area for a good bond, and that usually is not the case for the transparencies in most kits.  You could  try it, but it doesn't sound so great to me.
