So, is Plumber's GOOP any different from ordinary GOOP or Shoe GOOP? Are all GOOPs really the same? On some models of Ch*rokees the plastic trim on the doors simply falls off. I've found that GOOP works better than real trim cement to put it back on to stay. Great for sandals and shoes too. Strong, but flexible. Larry A.
