Re: adhesive for marine carpet

I used the outdoor carpet adhesive and the 3M 77 adhesive. I rather liked the 77 much more.<br /><br />The outdoor stuff needed to be troweled on. And after you positioned the carpet I almost always got some on top!! The spray stuff works like contact cement. Spray the surface you want to carpet then spary the carpet. Wait two minutes and then press the capet on. Worked well for me.<br /><br />I have no idea how well it will hold up but we will find out soon.<br /><br />As for bunks just use Monel or SS staples.
