The right glue for the job
 

Did a quick search for what I wanted but I seemed to get stuck ...

Can someone please advise me the best adhesive for:

1. Fixing the trim to the edge of the screen on a 999S

2. Fixing a carbon fibre cover to the existing tank pad on a 999S

Thanks very much!

Copydex ;)

Works for me - looks a bit messy but then I don't mind white gunky stuff seeping out all over the place ;););)

I really shouldn't have had that large gin :o:o:burn::burn:

Impact adhesive.....if its done right...then it will never move

Thanks for your thoughts concerning the white stuff, I'll ask for a more detailed explanation on Friday.

I'm not sure how permanently I want either item stuck - impact adhesive might be a bit too much. Thanks for answering though.

Any other suggestions anyone?

TUT TUT TUT.....and who says MEN have one tracked minds???

Why would you want anything of the things that you want to glue to be not permanent? Doesn't make sense Loz??

I suppose the screen trim isn't an issue, but I don't know how well the c/f tank pad will wear. If it ends up looking totally naff, I don't want to destroy the original tank pad underneath when I come to remove the c/f cover!


I'm trying to think ahead here, it's a new experience for me!

Theres a will and way to remove any glue. Impact is the strongest. Super Glue will work on the tank pad....but Impact is probably best for screen trim. you dont want the wind lifting it do you??

Davie, it occurred to me what effect the wind might have, hence my search for glue.
I'll try the impact adhesive for the trim and probably end up doing the tank pad too. Cheers for the advice.

Make sure both sides are almost dry and stick em together......once its together then its together.... do the instructions as per tube/tin.... very very tacky both sides and it should stick no probs
