Default Weird question ... gluing styrofoam back together... you know, the cooler stuff ..

The styrofoam ,, you know the stuff the coolers are made of. The coolers
you buy at like a 7 / 11. The cheap coolers.

Anyway,, these coolers break . And when they break what to do ? Mostly I
will see them on the side of the road or something.

Now ::: to the question. I want to line an icebox area of my boat with
insulation. I got to thinking ?? I probably have a couple or three or
four of the cheap styrofoam coolers in my garage. Some have no cover,
some are cracked ..

I figure I can cut the strofoam and piece it together to fit the contour
of the icebox. But, how do I "stick" the strofoam pieces together.

What kind of glue, whatever will hold cut pieces of styrofoam coolers
together?


Elmer's wood glue, or (better) Titebond (the yellow stuff).

I think you can get 4'x8' sheets of the stuff at Home Depot, etc. if you
feel a need for smoother construction.
