contact cement not working on stainless steel tabletop

hi everyone...i need some help! i just glued a decorative stainless steel top to my kitchen table and the contact cement i used is not adhering. i sanded the table before i glued the stainless on. i can pull the stainless up from the edges and see under it. this is three days later. i glued another piece of stainless to my kitchen island and its adhering just fine. the decorative stainless is "bumpy" so maybe thats the problem. My questions are:

*is there another adhesive i can use?

*do i need to pull it up entirely and start over?

*can i mix contact cement with another adhesive?

*should i just put weights on it for a week or so?

*should i pull it up and sand the metal to see if it will adhere better?

help!!!

thank you

lynn
