(1) Make sure your Goo purchase is recent. The shelf life in your garage is not long. (2) Have both the shoes and Goo at room temperature. There are handling and curing problems if you deviate from this ideal. (3) Lay out more newspapers than you think and get a few paper-towels handy. (4) Buy a big bag of rubber bands unless you have quite a few sizes already (important). (5) Using a small wire-brush (toothbrush style is best) clean out the area to be glued. Do this outside. Get out all the dirt and sand, and also rough-up the surfaces. You can't glue to dirt, and any little pebbles will be in there forever. Shoe must be completely dry (place held open over a heater vent for 24-hours if need be). (6) Goo glue it up. Be generous, but not too generous. Be particular careful to fully coat both surfaces at the edges of the shoe. (7) Rub the outside surfaces to squish the Goo around inside the sole. (8) Start putting on the rubber bands. You need a lot. Space them every quarter inch or closer on the glued edge. (9) The shoe parts have a tendency to open up, even with the rubber bands, so check again in 10 and 30 minutes. Add more rubber bands if needed. (10) Let sit inside for 24 hours. Or more.
