There is nothing expert about this 'how to' video. Non-toxic, acid-free adhesives are the best kind to use. Using the palm or hand to press it down can cause errors (i.e. sliding and/or bubbling underneath). When you've got the piece glued and in the right place, you put card stock or heavyweight paper over the piece and then press it down by rubbing a bone folder or a similar object over it.

rubber cement is not archival and is actually acidic. It will rot the whole thing w/in a year.
