Default Grip glue

Replacing my grips. Can seem to find a shop that has any actual labeled grip glue. Does anyone know of something I could find at a hardware store or wally world that would work just as good?

Guy at local dealership said he uses the glue women use to glue on fake nails, it works!!! Also the guy on the Revzilla site pours some rubbing alcohol down into the grip, sloshes it around and then install the grip. Let grip sit overnight and when alcohol evaporates the grips are set. I just used this method and will testify that it works also....

Alcohol guy here. You couldn't remove my grips with a razor blade if you tried. Everything else is lubrication. Once they are on, they are on.

I was always taught gasoline in the grip. Bad parenting? Im sure alcohol has the same results and is safer...
