I would think so, you got any? Apparently also the first versions of magnetic sound tape, before it went to polyester backing in mid 60s. Prolly many more products too.

Ron W., many of us still use acetone these days as default solvent for Ambroid, Duco, etc. Yes, it evaporates quickly, so constantly add more. I've never noticed brittleness issues regarding different solvents. Did you try any additional plasticizers with the pingpong ball glue? I'll experiment a bit more, and maybe destined to give up.
