I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

Depends!  What the surfaces are being glued and what the humidity is, will effect the drying time.  I remember one post that when gluing extruded foam together, somethig like several months later, though the edges had dried to hold it together, the center had not dried, as no air could get to it.

Good luck,

Richard
