What’s best to bond wood to fibreglass?
Posted: 03 May 2021, 18:07
Evening all
Been removing the sagging interior of the high top this weekend in preparation to put in some stretch carpet. There are pieces of wood behind the sagging vinyl that would serve as clamping strips around the windows and provided a place for screws to secure a cupboard doors etc. Some of these have gone past their best and simply turn to dust. Looks like dry rot and there’s no sign of moisture
Question is I need to replace these pieces and originally they were screwed into the fibreglass itself. Although it seems to have a double wall of thickness in these parts I can’t help but think there is something out there that will be as good or better. Silka flex or tiger seal is what I first thought of. I have a chaulking tube of no more nails and wondered about spreading it on
Thanks for the advice
