Title: Gluing top and bottom together
Post by: AQUAHOLIC on April 16, 2012, 09:59:31 AM

So i am almost ready to reassemble the two halves of the mini boat. But I have never done this before. I have a plan in my head that i am pretty sure will work. but i thought i would ask on here to see how you guys would do it.

so let me hear the right way to glass the two halves of a boat together.

Normally they are just held together by the tabbing at the seam. If you eat to get creative and make the joint like fort Knox, look into SMC panel bonding adhesive. Or really an automotive panel bonding adhesive. The glass will tear around the joint before the joint will fail.
