rawhide backing question

[portugeejn]

Advice needed.  I just finished unwrapping my first rawhide backing job (used John Strunk's instructions in the Bowyer's Bible-Ace elastic bandages to hold the strips down, but I used a different glue).  It turned out well, but I have one air bubble the size of the end of your pinkie finger very near the handle.  The bow is a 67" yew wood bow that I made in a class Strunk taught, and am getting finished up.  

What is the best way to get some glue under there to hold it down.  It is right in the middle of the upper limb near the handle, with good glue adhesion all around it.

What glue would you use?  I used Titebond II on the original glue-up.  Or should I just leave it alone.  Thanks.

cut it  glue it  hold it down.. Use super glue

A small razor slit will give you enough to get the air out and the glue back into the air bubble.  Wrap the area well but remove the wrap after about an hour to be sure it held. Or, you can do the same with super glue. Put a piece of wax paper over the patch to keep the super glue from sticking to the wrap. The super glue should set up in 15 minutes or so.    Pat

A syringe works well also

I've used a razor blade.White glued it.I've used a syring with white glue in it.Only once but it worked good.If you sand the bow and the raw hide.White glue also works great.Never had one come lose.
