[QUOTE="Bigwrench, post: 404468, member: 13822"] I actually contacted 3m today and was able to chat with Don V. Sent him a link to my build here and I am seriously considering this now , I can't believe I hadn't thought of this before as much as our body guys use it. The technical data looks amazing with unbelievable shear strengths when properly prepped on aluminum ! [img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160120/8a69057c48133cb9231c338331e3d124.jpg[/img] We talked about temperature and how it could affect the cohesive properties and I just need to do a couple test runs on some sample pieces and it would be good to know what the surface temp would be of the painted aluminum in direct sunlight on say a 90 degree day. He mentioned 180 is where it would start weakening and I don't think it would get anywhere near that with the right color paint. The complete technical data sheet can be found here [url]https://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/761729O/technical-data-sheet-3mtm-panel-bonding-adhesive-08115.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
