Do you sand clear pad before gluing. Thanks
What is the purpose of the clear base? I might have missed any discussions on it when it first came out.
Does anyone know what type of glue Kamui uses to attach the clear pad?
You mean why doesn't it soak into the leather like it's supposed to prevent on the other side of it?
Very good question.
We could just use that adhesive for all our tip installs and solve the problem without needing a clear pad..
If you are willing to wait . You can trim the tip within a minute f applying a good CA. Not so with contact cement.You mean why doesn't it soak into the leather like it's supposed to prevent on the other side of it?

The pad also protects ferrules from breaking or mushrooming ( yes, i've seen mushroomed ferrules ).
The most famous tip before moori had a backing.
Backed tips have been around for a long time .
I'd love to use leather glue for all tip installs but people want their tips installed while they wait .
So the CA does not penetrate the leather and make it hard at the bottom .

Titebond melamine glue.So back to the question what glue do you suppose they use to attach the clear pad to the tip? Or more to the point what glue can we use that won't soak into the leather and still hold the tip forever? Assuming we don't mind waiting.
Titebond melamine glue.
