There are special glues made to bond brake material to the shoe. I"ve done riveted brake bands for cranes and other things for years, but for the bonded stuff I take it to someone who specializes in doing it. For me there is a local place called CECO Friction Products. They have done a few bands for me over the years and I"ve never had any problems out of their work.

Personally I have headed down a hill, and into a curve, on a rubber tired loader only to discover it had no brakes. I got through the whole incident without wrecking, but it still scared the crap out of me.
