Slow cure spray adhesive

Can someone recommend a slow cure spray adhesive?

I use 3M 77 for lamination's and it works very well. However, it is a contact cement and there is obviously no way to adjust the parts once contact is made.

Sometimes I need to glue a large part and also be able to adjust it before the glue dries.

I have tried Elmer's Glue Sticks and UHU Glue Sticks but have not had consistent results. If the parts are to remain flat they seem to work fine, but if the parts need to be bent, folded, or rolled after the glue dries there are problems with the parts de-laminating.

So, for those surfaces that are too big to comfortably brush on PVA I would like to find a spray adhesive that will give me some time to adjust the parts before the glue sets.

Any suggestions?

Nope. Cannot think of a spray adhesive that does this.

For this type of application I use glue sticks - they give some working time

Most of the spray adhesives I have used state that you can spray one surface then join the pieces right away or while the adhesive is still tacky. This allows some repositioning of the pieces. Give that a try and see if it works.

3M General Purpose 45
Krylon All Purpose 7010
Tree House Studio Acid Free High Tack Multi-Purpose
