All I've ever used is the 3M Super 77 spray adhesive for snow, leaf ground cover, securing layers of dry soil, etc.
My wife used it for her projects - gluing felt bottoms on bases - and recently went with the Elmer's spray adhesive to save a couple of bucks, until the other night, when the glue started running out from beneath the oversized spray button like it was hocking a big white loogie!

Luckily lacquer thinner got it up from the carpet!

Needless to say, just today she picked up a new can of the 3M Super 77. Saving a buck or two on the Elmer's just wasn't worth the "savings!"
And if you think the Super 77 is pricey, try a can of 3M Photo Mount Spray ... even higher price, but it works like no body's business for mounting photos to foam core!

Stick with the 3M. Lesson learned here!
