Uzytkownik "1088" napisal w wiadomosci
...
Day of sun, day of rain, day of sun, day of rain,.. I'm back inside
the breathtakingly spacious cabin of my 23' yacht with it's many
luxury appointments getting ready to stick up some stained plywood
panels I made. It's 3mil 1088 Okume ply. (hence the rakish moniker for
this phase of my "refit".)
The back of the old stuff was just smeared in a haphazard pattern with
a pale yellow paste that dried hard as iron and has to be ground off
with diligence and firm language wearing haz-mat headgear. The boat
was built at Cowes.
So,.. I'm gluing plywood to rough, scabby old fiberglass. What would
be easy to apply for a person working alone? I use telescoping plastic
shower curtain rods for clamps, or I guess it would be the reverse of
clamps. Liquid nails? 5200, 4200, sikoflex 216, 61a? Cheap, good and
readily available would be great but if anything buzzes or rattles
when the engine runs I will jump overboard.
Ok, the spell check is complete, I had 6 errors.


Twenty years back from now, I have used jam-like polyurethane glue to
remount failed factory-mounted ceiling panel in my Fiat 126P automobile.
After smearing old panel completely with this superglue, I lifted it with
bare hands, pressed to the roof, and presto, it held!
No solvents, no grinding, just pure chemistry.
This glue is now available almost everywhere to help amateur shoe repair!
Kind regards!
