IT Stuck!

Would Recommend

Do Not Believe the Negative reviews, they are simply uneducated on the product. This product works great, and really holds well, it is a Professional product made for professionals. There is nothing out there that will stick and hold in all environments like this product.

Works as promised

Would Recommend

New home with composite decking is slippery, especially in winter. I purchase non slip tracks, sprayed the area with the 3m adhesive, peeled the backing off the tracks, and haven’t had any problems at all. I then did the same to a ramp in front of our shed, it works so well I was amazed. Thank you 3M!

Great adhesive but awful nozzle

Would Not Recommend

I have purchased this at least one other time and found it to have an impressive bond strength which *had* a great nozzle, dispensing the solution in a "spaghetti pattern" like pattern. Unfortunately, something seemed to have changed in the 3M production of this product as the nozzle no longer sprays in that spaghetti pattern. Perhaps that's because it can't be inserted into the can properly. Dispensing is a mess, as it seeps out from under the nozzle while some of the solution is through the tw...

Didn't Bond Plastic to Plywood

Would Not Recommend

The first sign when I began using it was that it wouldn't spray after vigorously shaking it for 3 minutes. I had high hopes that this 3M adhesive would be able to bond a 6" x 8" 3/4" piece of plywood to a similar sized piece of plastic stair tread. I followed the directions exactly as printed, coated both materials with 3 coats, waited until they both passed the "knuckle test", then pressed them together. I then clamped them and waited 24 hours. The next day they seemed to be properly adhered pr...

Finally! The best adhesive.

Would Recommend

Excellent adhesive for a marine glue down vinyl floor. I used it for the vertical parts and folding parts around large hatches. It is strong easy to aim and locks in place immediately. It does not have a strong smell. It also works perfect on horizontal surfaces.

Sprays nicely even below room temperature

Would Recommend

I used it to hold sheets of insulation on metal ventilation channels. It sticks enough to Glava to hold it in place. Very easy to use and great product. It should have a user guide /manual.

Does not bond well to aluminum!

Would Not Recommend

Does not bond well to aluminum! Seems to adhere pretty well until it sits in the sun for a bit then it just peels right off.

Do not believe negative reviews

Would Recommend

I have been using this adhesive for over a decade and I can tell you that it works hand down. All the bad reviews are from people not knowing how to prep the surface or how to use the product. The ONLY solvent that should be used to prep the surface is alcohol (100%), not Brake Kleen et al. They leave a residue behind and that residue most times will break down the adhesive not allowing it to stick. This adhesive is a contact cement and by design it will stick to itself. It will only do thi...

Good adhesion, poor spray, impossible to cleanup.

Would Not Recommend

It sticks very well and body my polypropylene but the pattern is like silly string. I tried heating the can up to 90f to thin it out as I've done with paint in the past but it's still just as bad. I can deal with the spray patter being poor but the worst is there's no information on over-spray cleanup. Do I use alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline...? Please help with full information to give a good end-user a successful application use.

Great for Egg Crate foam

Would Recommend

Picked this up for gluing 2 pieces of egg crate foam together back to back and also for gluing a piece to the top inside of a plastic hard case. Worked very well, holding great and didn't mess up the foam. I had to glue the foam together twice, the first time I let the glue dry too long and the pieces were easily pulled apart. The second go around I sprayed each side and waited maybe 2 minutes, it was still wet but didn't stick to my fingers when touching. Carefully placed the pieces together ...

It works!

3M 90 works for my purpose which was attaching carpet in a VW Beetle that I am restoring. The Gorilla adhesive was totally useless and the 3M 77 wasn't much better. I sprayed the Gorilla adhesive and the next morning the carpet had already fallen off on the vertical surfaces and was completely loose on the horizon surfaces.
