If that magic Liquid latex of which you speak, is InFact solvent proof. How do they dissolve it in ammonia?
Magnets?
The mastik we glue tubs with doesnt really form a super solid bond. So you wouldnt need to go far up the solvent based glue Food Chain to find one stronger. Obviously steer Clear of anything water based. But I fail to see the need for nasty ammonia based latexs.
I'm a polymer chemist not a tub expert. So big pinch of salt needed. But i'd have just used the barge glue that I have. As I'm pretty sure that'll hold sufficiently better than mastik.
