I have seen the cheapie shops showing glue guns and thought "yes I should get one of those for repairs" but by itself that is strong enough?
Yep, Hot glue melts into the joint and it will not come apart.
Just becarefull not to put too much/too hot and melt the foam.
Wipe excess with finger or have something to scrape off before it cools and dries. Instant fix. the quickest and cheapest way.
