Hi!

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I did take all the precautions of sanding it with fine grain paper, 3m
scrub
wash and final clean with isopropyl alcohol just before applying the glue.
But nothing seems to work. The problem could be the brittleness of the epoxy
glues.
I'll try rubber layer technique and see if it holds.

Thanks again for suggestion.
