Glueing new wooden deck to existing wooden deck
goBulawayo:
Hi All, I want to put a new deck onto a boat I am rebuilding, the old one is a bit tired, full of holes etc - The new deck will probably be 1mm ply as I have some in stock, I am not sure what glue would be best - I have been using Gorilla glue for odd jobs on boats recently and wondered if I could use that?
Cheers Wayne

I feel the old deck is bad wood with no varnish or paint finish, you can just use a decent waterproof pva wood glue. That should hold it very nicely.

Good old cascamite, plenty of time (24hr) and waterproof. nemesis

and also from Amazon and Screwfix sells it
I personally like to use the yellow glue - Titebond glue - from Amazon etc. I find it works well -
Cascamite I find does deteriorate over years and leaves a white powder when you separate the bond - mind - I am talking 20 years plus.
