It looks like everyone has their own way of doing this. I started this thread thinking there was a "best" way. I suppose their is, but it's best for each person. I didn't try the Titebond, but I did try the rest of the ideas here. Using Elmer's alone, I had a hard time keeping the wrap from slipping around. Maybe I used too much water -- not sure. It was obvious that it would work with Elmer's alone, but I found it cumbersome. I tried again with just contact cement and had the same issues as before, which was all seam related. Then, I tried thinning the contact cement. That was messy, and I didn't really like it. There's an art to it and I dont' have the master's touch. Also, the added setup time left a lot of fumes in the shop. Finally, I combined the suggestions and came upon the "best" way for me. I'm using the Wrap Magic jig for cutting, maybe that's why this works for me. Anyway, after finding a centerline of the cue and cutting the wrap to length (with it's center line noted on tape), I run a peice of masking tape on the opposite side of the cue's marked centerline. I put contact cement on the cue wrap groove and the wrap - - wait about 5 minutes until it's dried, and then install. That leaves 3/4" of unattached wrap and excess wrap width. I put the cue in the jig and cut the seam. Then, I use lightly thinned Elmer's for the last 3/4". It allows me some time to get that seam together and flattened. For security, I start on one end of the cue, work it a little and apply some masking tape to hold it in place (not sure if I need the tape, but it makes me feel better). I do this about every 2 inches or so. Works for me. The wrap is stuck tite and the seam looks . . . where is it?
I had to do a lot of prep work and went through several wraps, but it was worth it. Thanks to everyone for the advise and ideas.
