Hi Guys,
Just ordered a new carpet kit from Al Knoch. Whats the best adhesive
to use on the foam backing to put it down?
Thanks,John
3m yellow spray adhesive and 3m yellow weatherstrip in the tube for small areas. I did try the clear 3m spray but it soaked up and did not hold well- I think it's for headliners. Just did my carpets with the yellow and it bites hard, so use caution when placeing the pad if it's warm out.
I used the spray can of 3m and it worked great. Remember that to do this you do not saturate the floor with glue. The purpose of the glue is to act as a tacking agent not a cement agent, otherwise you will pay hell to remove the carpet once its dry, and more hell to pay when you prep it to put new carpet back on. Again, the spay that Al sells or 3m you can buy at Home Depot works great.
