I'm trying to track down some BD Gold Label skin glue.  I thought finding a 4oz can of this stuff (unfortunately, after I stripped the nasty, old, but still intact glue from a pair of my skins) would be a snap.  I've come to find out NO ONE has it.  I've heard everything from "should be here next week" to "we can special order it" to "They aren't making it anymore".  There was rumor of not being able to ship it due to its hazardous chemical compound. 
From what I've read, its superior to the iron on sheets.  So I'm wondering, does anyone have a bottle lying around from when they thought about  re-gluing some skins, but never got around to it?  I'd be happy to pay the $15 retail price.
-Does anyone have experience w/the iron-on sheets?  If they work great, I'll just get those.
-Does anyone know what the deal is with the availability of this stuff? If it'll "be here in a week", I can certainly wait that long.  If not, I'll have to figure something else out.  Maybe I'll take the opportunity to go all "Mad Scientist" and start mixing stuff in the garage. Mmmmwwoooooooaaahahahaaaaa!!!

Try OMC. I talked to them a few weeks back and they had it ($12) even though it's not listed on their web site. 503-227-1038. Good Luck.

Hey Rong, I hope you're right.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I've mail ordered the glue directly from Balck Diamond in the past. I don't see that option on their website currently ( www.blackdiamondequipment.com/en-us/shop.../gold-label-adhesive ) but their phone machine says they directly sell any of their products. Ground shipping only, no air. It isn't clear if they are backordered like everyone else. Good luck.

I saw it on sale online at a ski shop last week. Wish I could remember who. Not a big name. A lot of google-ing may turn it up. Good luck. Somewhere, someone has a can on the shelf.
