hi, I sew for a living and am based in a upholstery unit, so between us we do lots of loose covers or full upholstery (when I'm not recovering from hand surgery!). first, spray glue will have no affect on the foam it's used alot on full sofa upholstery.  BUT I'm unsure this will be enough to hold it together, if you want to try then i would look at leaving the original fabric on, all being it's flush and has no raised pattern, velor/draylon may be a bit iffy, so would solely depend on the exisiting fabric. many dining chair pads are covered over as it maintains the shape of 'well used' foam. (although these are stapled)

another option is to stick the foam to a slim wooden base, thick enough for staples and staple it on, OR find a indpendant sewer, i used to work out of my conservatory and would do caravan cushion covers for VERY cheap! there maybe someone starting off and a 'maybe not perfect' sewed cover maybe better than a bad glued job!
