Jerm, I haven't found a source for bulk glue yet and have been buying the cans of BD Gold Label. If I get enough business to justify it I will search harder or try to work something out with BD.

I've used the G3 sheets of glue- just clean the old stuff off (iron and paper to soak up the glue) and iron it on. The glue is as good or better then the BD stuff. For Fat skins you may want to put a strip on tape on the glue- just like the pros! The sheets of glue cost more; but very fast, easy and clean- the wife still uses the iron for clothes.

Testimonial for 2nd Wind's Skin Glue Guy-- He did a fantastic job, so I didn't have to do a funky job, or worse, get a new pair. And he was fast. Its all relative to how much money and time one has. I would not expect anyone to spend the money and time on my skins just for the love of it. A skilled trade is worth a *minimum*of $15/hr in our neck of the woods, and any small biz needs to factor in overhead. Besides, I think we should be promoting any attempts to provide local service so we all don't have to live in the big city :D.
