Default Rod repair advice

Traditional ferrule cement seemed not to adhere
to IM6 graphite when I needed to replace a tiptop.
Is there any reason not to use rubber cement?

While working in a fly shop, I saw many rods with tips that had been
replaced using super glue. Almost all were off line. We used 5 minute epoxy
for repairs after removal of the tips using carefully applied heat.
