Did yours ever have that problem? I've had to reapply the glue to a couple areas every 10 games or so. It's getting frustrating. (i'm using Gorilla gel type superglue). All the areas that sit on bare shell seems ok. Scrape off any residue from both surfaces and use contact cement. Tell your team to play good D...it's very dangerous if you get lit up. Contact cement is very flammable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckus007 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 what's good for removing superglue? It's hardened and won't scrape off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher Goalie Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Just wanted to follow up on this - I went with a bit of a different idea for my chin sling. I wanted to make minimal, if any, permanent modifications to the mask. I ended up tracing (wasn’t the most precise) and cutting out the Maltese gel to fit between the existing padding. Rather than try to attach mechanically, which would have required either cutting the stock padding or cutting the chin cup straps or both, I used contact cement to glue on two webbing loops to the back of my Maltese cut out. I just ran the stock chin cup Velcro straps through those loops. So its basically attached the same way a chin cup is attached and is completely removable. So far it feels great - exactly the fit/feeling I was going for. Will report back after using in a live session. Thanks to everyone for their ideas!

You can see the tube webbing pieces I attached with contact cement to provide loops for the stock chin cup straps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
