JM AP foil faced insulation

ts2021 | Posted in General Discussion on

Seems the Loctite PL300 has a little bit of a hard time getting good adhesion.  What other adhesive would work.

    I haven’t found anything yet that didn’t stay stuck to PL Premium.

    Your mileage may vary.

    I had a few corners of the insulation pop. I just spoke with tech support. They recommended liquid nails fuze it but will not guarantee a permanent hold. They recommended using a mechanical fastener in addition to fuze it, even if it's 1 fastener on each corner.
