They do make a foam safe instant glue, but lately some of the name brands haven't worked well for me, using kicker to one side then glue to the second half hasn't worked like I am used to.

I also use white Gorilla Glue. Works great for edge joins. But for my laminating I've stopped useing spray glues, loctites spray glue was my favorite. Elmers 452 was also good and cheap. I've stopped because of the over spray issue. I now use Rubber Cement. Works great, supper strong bond. Plus anything extra can be easilly rubbed off leaving the foam clean.

You can use pretty much anything with EPO. Even CA. Its quite resilient stuff.
