I'd never thought of using rubber cement Did a bit of research and that seems to be what cobblers use for glueing soles. I've always used freesole (now aquaseal SR). I'm not sure the CA glue is the tright product to seal however, as it sets brittle. Freesole woild probably work better as it sets flexible.
Another job well done , congratulations i would possibly have used a hard nylon seam roller like the one i have for my hot air gun for rolling over the Glued surfaces its only about inch and half diameter i use it to roll Bitumen tape edges when doing repairs but looks like you achieved what you wanted so well done
I wouldn't bother doing your repair because the your PU (ploy urethane) midsoles get "hydrolysis" at your boots' age which means the PU simply and completely disintegrates. Boot makers are well aware of this and don't mention it and it's not included under normal wear and tear and material defects warranty (which is complete BS because how is this not a completely bogus breakdown of materials). How's the repair holding up?
Acetone is very good at breaking down the glue

Super interesting but was so distracted. Was he fixing his roof?
Lol my brother. In actuality I was baking bread. Try to see if you can follow along a bit more closely. :)
