- Part 1, Trying out Roberts 6700 indoor outdoor adhesive to glue some marine carpet down.
Since their are so many mixed reviews, I decided to try it out first with some scrap materials to make sure it can handle the job. In part 2, will see what it looks like after 2 weeks.
That adhesive is some great stuff. But one thing you have to do for maximum strength you didn't do is after trowling is let setup for 30 to 60mins depending on temperature and humidity because its waterbased. After you lay carpet you need to use a J-Roller and roll and press the carpet down. After that good luck trying to pull up carpet. You'll pull up a layer of the plywood with the carpet!!
Oh jeez that's plenty good for carpet glue! Dont forget your peeling a 2" strip and it ripping the backing off that's some good stuff!!
Good video. You’re definitely not supposed to let it dry at all. Spread your glue. Put it down then immediately pull back a corner to ensure it’s got 100% coverage. TACKY is dry. Like duct tape stays tacky on the roll right? That was a great test to show why you don’t spread more than you can immediately put down.
The glue was holding and the carpet came apart. Are you going to be walking on it or pulling on it?
I used it to glue rubber on aluminum. After 48 hours, it has the consistency of peanut butter and pulls up easily
What did you end up doing to make it work? Doing carpet on my boat currently and have the same situation
@@thomasmchugh1865I think it works well on carpet if your going to staple it down
But rubber on aluminum was a mess
Thanks for the info! About to do a bass guitar "Fender" speaker cabinet with the 6700 from Home Depot. I'll see if I can Vibrate the carpet off! Thanks for the drying time info (Long).
Thanks for sharing, I'm getting ready to do my boat with this same glue. How did your boat turn out? Did this glue do the trick and would you recommend it?
Think that trowel is the issue should have been smaller tooth, great test though
How did you know it wasn’t dry before 10 days?
Um he checked it. And it wasn't dry that's how he knew
Great testing thanks for sharing. Can you tell me how your project is going? Is there a lot of odor? I am planning on letting my projects cure indoors as it is too cold in my garage.
Yes, there is an odor, nowhere near as unpleasant as contact cement, but it will make you feel sick and light headed and give you a headache after a bit.
Due to the long curing time, I would not recommend having it in a living space you are occupying unless it is a room that has a slightly open window and can be sealed off from the rest of the home and its occupants. The last thing you want is for your central heating and cooling to suck up the smell and distribute it through out the home.
I will be posting the follow up video on the adhesive and on the project in the next day or so.
Hi, that glue is for fiberglass too? Thanks.
Yes
That stuff is Junk I used it on my boat and after two months, it got wet on the boat and came right up. I would not recommend it. that was after dried for two months
