I haven't used that brand of contact adhesive Matty. There seem to be several types, with different characteristics. The type I've used, in at least a couple of different brands, is a synthetic rubber dissolved in a mixture of solvents, mainly MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) - the glue is a brown colour and is slightly translucent. It looks rather like the stuff you are trying to scrape off in the pictures. I'm confident about what that stuff does, but when it comes to water based ones or strange green ones, I have no idea.

I've used the spray-on stuff with only limited success.

A small administrative point: please don't create duplicate threads on the same subject. I've deleted the other one.
