Glad you mentioned grip fill. Little old me (DIYer) just used PinkGrip to stick mine down to concrete (screed) in long lengths without primer (tripple fail), and it all pinged off. Learnt that one the hard way.
No joy for me. Tried 3 different adhesives. Pink Grip, Sticks Like, and Gorilla grab adhesive. MAPEI screeded floor, vaccumed and primed with tiler's acrylic primer. Tested on 6" lengths of gripper. Adhesive coated perfectly, as I put the bead on the gripper and worked it back and forth on the floor to spread it out. 24 hours later used a wallpaper scraper to scrape them off and all came off relatively easily, worst was Pink Grip. Was hoping the plywood would split, but nope, just a coating of screed dust on the bottom of each, less on the Pink Grip. Reckon most combinations will fail after a few years of summer/winter expansion and contraction, and under tension from the carpet.

i only use the rapidbond, its great stuff, just don't get it on your skin as won't come off for days... great video
Chisel. Thanks for video on gripper glue, interesting comparisons.
Send us your address mate congratulations 👍
@@UKFlooringTV Address sent to your email. Thanks, Andy.
The blue stuff is good but leaks from the back if the tube. Hard to remove from the gun when it's been left to dry for a few days
Chisel and a great video guys
Rapidbond very good but a17 adhesive even better 👍
Did you get the prices for the glues ?
What’s the best primer atm ?
Wallplugs with screw instant good to go with soyudall strong grip fixall
Chisel
Anyone remember PA5 😫
Yes ! 2 part in the yellow tubs lol miss that smell

Chisel all these years using spray I guess cost wise primer ain't worth it
