Regardless of the type of glue used, the lens cap popped off very easily with a good bump. My guess is due to the less than optimal plastic/aluminum bond. After the fourth re-adhesion I'd had enough. Therefore, I'm no longer recommending this mod."<br /><br /><br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/12396591@N06/sets/72157616182660321/Peetahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581247223867635351.post-22288581578670315292009-09-04T13:36:45.084-07:002009-09-04T13:36:45.084-07:00I used 1cm square pieces of heavy duty black doubl...I used 1cm square pieces of heavy duty black double sided foam tape. 3 layers thick.
