    Recarpet I got, what glue to use?

    I see most people use Weldwood on the lids, what glue do people use for the decks?

    I used the glue from bassboatseats.com.

    I even had a tub unused that they let me return.

    I use Henry 663, good stuff. I only use contact cement on the lid edges.

    I've always used the latex indoor-outdoor glue on the boat decks and never had a problem with it. Contact cement on the lids but it is too hard to work with on the decks because you can't adjust the carpet once its down.
