Battle of the Glues: Which Adhesive Sticks Out?

Рет қаралды 52,529

Жыл бұрын

Which spray adhesive works best? How to use spray adhesives? Do spray adhesive work on carpet and plywood. Today’s video answers these questions and more. In this video, I test three spray adhesive’s and one conventional carpet adhesive for overall bond, price, ease of use, and ability to resist edge curling if carpet when glues to OSB “plywood”.
Meet the competition:
Gorilla spray adhesive
3M super 77 adhesive
Loctite spray adhesive professional strength
DAP Outdoor carpet adhesive
I followed the manufacturers instructions for use for each of the adhesives in this video to see, which is the best adhesive for gluing indoor outdoor carpet to OSB “plywood”.
Let me know your thoughts on these adhesives, and the methodology for the competition video.

Some of the adhesives in this video didn’t perform very well. I was a little surprised. I am curious to know your thoughts about the tests and the adhesives. Tell me in the comments below.⤵️

@aristotle_4532 11 ай бұрын

This was a very objective test. 3M runs circles over any competitor in most general applications, and is cheaper than many "cheap" products because it produces a fine mist that is high in solids at low cost in mass/area while still performing very well. The only problem is that it becomes dry too fast for many consumer applications and some professional applications. You have to be decisive and accurate with it. If you are assembling something for selling, it may require some paperwork. Most adhesives on the market only exist because some people try them and they do a so and so job, but they keep buying them because they never compare to a good product. These are products that "work" in a world where labels and recommendations mean nothing, many products and materials are incompatible, and the internet contains so much misinformation on the subject. They are brand-based products, pushed in retail over far superior products. There is no real engineering behind them. They are cheap generic formulas. Some adhesives could be classified in the scam category due to cost of coverage. They are money makers for the stores when cheap materials are sold, and sometimes installers get a huge cut on the material cost for recommending them. These are common in the building, but especially in the DIY markets and the ultimate snake oil market, sound-proofing. Strength is not always something we want. Sometimes we want to change carpets. In this case, technical performance is not important and is actually counterproductive. 3M77 is strong and designed for permanent application. As an example, it is not appropriate for many scenic design uses, because redressing and reuse of materials is common and application is usually temporary. Professional sometimes use incompatible adhesives for such uses. In any case, congratulations on the test. It represents very heavy usage with unprotected edges, something uncommon in professional application, but very revealing.

Nicely done video and a good comparison although I wouldn't put the DAP Carpet Adhesive in with the rest unless it's only a 'control' which the others would be compared to. That's because the DAP is specifically for adhering to carpet. I think that's its one and only job. And given that, I was surprised you were able to get it off. Overall job well done here. Thank you.

@joshuaatkins5197 4 ай бұрын

A fish scale between your hand and the clamping device as you pull would make for a great Testament to how much force it truly takes to get it to release. Thanks for the video. I'd also like to add that I'm a painter and use the super 77 as our go-to for spray adhesive. There is a huge difference in application technique and results. If you lightly spray one of the two surfaces and immediately clamp them together it will release much easier later without any damage to either side usually. It's because it wasn't allowed time to cure before it was clamped together. We do it this way when we want to apply some masking that will not come off, say in the sun for example, but can be removed later in the day without damage to the substrate. For the type of bond you're looking for. It's best to spray both sides lightly and allow to tack up before sticking together. This is the more traditional technique when using it like contact cement and want it to be permanent. Once again thank you for the video. First person testing is always the best

Video Request: I suspect that your spray can shaker is doing little, if anything. You should test it with some type of clear capped tube or jar, add equal parts of clear and dark color paint that has been thinned slightly thicker than water but, no thicker than milk. Put a marble in, then add the color paint first, then very gently add the the clear on top, not disturbing the color paint. Put one in the paint shaker and do the other one by hand for the same amount of time, shaking it up and down.

Anything 3M makes is top shelf. Was really surprised to see the Super77 be the cheapest. I've used the 77 & 90 contact adhesive before & they cannot be beat. Kinda like 5200, yea you can "remove" it but you'll pull apart whatever it's hooked to. Gorilla has only impressed me with their duct tape, glues not so much. Looks like loctite needs to stick to loctite thread locker.

@NVPJ 3 ай бұрын

@@davenstorm7271 3M 77 holds to 100 F degrees while 3M 90 holds to 160 F degrees. In official 3M data sheets, 3M 77 fails at 205 degrees F while 90 fails at 250 degrees F. Cars, especially roofs, get very hot so people have bad success with 3M 77. Of the 3M products, you are going to want 3M 90 or 3M 38808 Headliner and Fabric Adhesive. But there are also many non-3M products - many swear by Weldwood brush on. And when picking something, you need to evaluate what you are gluing - fabric to foam, foam to metal roof, etc.
