Flyingramses Posted February 23, 2020 #69 Posted February 23, 2020 Hello Sir Francis, would you mind advising exactly what glue you used for decking planks, you mention contact glue, is that the white glue used for the hull? One YouTube video shows the guy painting a yellow fluid from a tin, seemed to give him time to stick down the planks which is what I need! Quote
