Hi Friends,
Let’s talk about gluing! Let’s make this the glue information thread. Glue information that can be found in one place on VTT. Maybe it will become a sticky – get it…
Post about things like:
1. Which glues are best to use?
a. When do you use certain glues?
2. Does location on the trailer determine a type of glue
3. How do you apply the glue, spray, paint brush, drizzle zig zag?
a. When does the application of the glue change - if at all?
b. Weather, temperature, humidity?
4. Does paint on wood interfere with the strength of the glue and grip once the glue dries?
a. What about paint on steel and then gluing to wood?
b. Painted surface to painted surface?
5. Recommended brands?
6. Any place on the trailer you wouldn’t use glue.
7. Use glue by itself or with screws and bolts?
These are just some questions I came up with to get people thinking. Toss in any info you have based on experience or your own opinion. Ask any other questions as well.
I will start. It’s been recommended to me to use Titebond III on the floor because it’s water resistant. That’s about all I know.
Cheers,
Rod
