The foam on the top of my crowbars is falling apart, and i was just curious if there was a way to fix it?

I figured i would post on here before I go and just pour super glue all over it..

Is the foam just coming off the frame or deteriorating little by little?

if the entire piece is coming off just glue it. if its falling apart you need new goggles.

It's there a certain glue I should use, or would super glue work?

Krazy glue or super glue. Something that doesn't expand. Stay away from gorilla glue. That expands alot.

You dont even need very much. just apply with a q-tip and get the entire exposed area lightly covered. If you put to much in one place it will most likely come off again.

Yeah... one small detail, super glue eats foam. If you put super glue on them, its going to start deteriorating your goggle foam

tacky glue that you can get at a craft store will glue foam to plastic. Just don't use a ton of it and you need to let it dry with some pressure on it. And it's flexible, so you can bend your goggles like usual and not worry about it. It won't last for ever, but it won't hurt the foam.
