Don't even think about using any 3M 42-5200.


Jim have you had bad experience with 5200 ?

No. It's good for gluing down consoles, rod holders, etc.
It's a good thing when you can avoid drilling fastener holes in the hull.
But it doesn't come loose. Has to be cut and sanded off.
Not meant for setting stanchions, where the bolts/screws provide the
strength.

Jim - Rough up a slick plastic. Makes a better bond with the 5200.
