Alrightly, the problem:
Need to adhere the ol' cutting board trick to the transom to attach the transducer, make rub guards for the transom straps and to seal up a very small corrosion hole (above water line) not worth redoing the whole transom for.
Getting a tube of 3m 4200/5200 around here requires major PITA factor. I'm in a somewhat remote location and they tend to "rook you hard" for everything here. The closest thing I can get other than Hardware store stuff is an RV store that sells Dicor lap sealant and I don't think that will work in my intended application (even then they want stupid money for that too, nearly 40 bucks a 10 oz tube! )
The question:
Has anyone used any of the "hardware store" available construction adhesive/sealers below the waterline with any success?
IE: liquid nails, lepage PL300, Mono, DAP, etc....
I can pick up a tube of 3m later on in the year when we go away on vacation, but I need something that will work until then. Or even work just a s well as 3m 4200/5200.
The boat is used in both fresh and salt water.
