[QUOTE="Jay415, post: 228375, member: 6905"] I was just going over your build, GREAT JOB! =D> I was able to get Roberts 6700 locally so I think I'm gonna follow your lead with this one. Have you had the carpet subjected to heavy wetness at all? Like rain storms? I am in the process of coating a test piece with Helmsman and then I'll glue a scrap of carpet to it. I don't see why I should have any problems though. I bought Satin finish Helmsman because I was guessing with more gloss, there would be more of a chance for glue not to stick. Like gluing to glass. What finish did you use? Do you think it even matters? This sounds like it left a glossy finish so I guess I shouldn't worry about it. Did you use the Roberts 6700 also? That's the only outdoor carpet glue I saw at HD. Did you sand or rough up the surface before gluing? [/QUOTE]
