EVA glue?

On to my next project. What do you guys and gals use to glue up your EVA Handles? Want to add some color banding cut on an angle, nothing fancy, just to spice it up a bit. Would Tight Bond III work on that as well as it did on cork? I'll be shaping on a mandrel prior to mounting it on the rod, if it makes a differance.
Thanks in advance.

Fred, you want to use DAP 'Weldwood' contact cement. Apply to both sides, wait 15 min then put together. use a clamp or some other means to put alot of pressure for a few seconds.

There was a great article in Rodmaker magazine. I think it was volume 7 #3. Told all you need to know about doing grip inlays.
