Glue for Hibiki

Hello All

Does anybody knows what glue used for synthetic skins like Hibiki?

Best regards,
Alexey

Hello Alexey,

I remember reading a couple of posts in the past, one of those from Kyle, stating that synthetic skins are glued with industrial-grade superglue, with specific longer set times to allow for the time it takes the machine to stretch the sking against the lifting dou.

What I am not sure is how the skin is glued to the side, if that’s superglue as well or the original rice glue. My uncertainty is due to the fact that removing superglue (in case the skin tears) is usually done with acetone, which can seriously damage the beautiful sides of the dou.

Cheers.
