Looking for ind. epoxy
Looking for indeustrial strnght epoxy for motorhome sides. We have an FL-70 with 24' box.The aluminum siding has turned loose on cpl seems. We use a supposed to be the greatest stuff ever epoxy when built. We can and may have to rivet it before all is said and done. Would rather avoid if can.

I have some work to do inside as results of seams opening and damage. Need to seal up outside first needless to say. Any suggestions on epoxy you have used or know results from other using?

Panel bond like body shops use....

2 part that mixes in the gun you need to buy with the tubes

The stuff is excellent and easy to find...Body shop supply places or online

I had a Motorhome that the hinge mounts came off of for the front access panel for the generator

Steel to fiberglass.....Used panel bond and a couple vise grip type c- clamps.....and the stuff worked perfect...rock solid...

Either panel bond as suggested or on the truck conversion pages a lot of people recommend 3m VFB or VHB tape not sure on exact 3 letters

Thought about that. Problem is panels mostly in place and with the tape you have zero adjustments after solid contact. The epoxy has a small window but should allow to adjust anything. Only problem with epoxy is keeping exposed part of panel being overlapped clean.

50 bucks if you get my father to go along with that, Since we built motorhome together using company funding its 50/50 deal. If never worked with father you have no idea how well that 50 bucks would be earned. Hell 500 would be under payment.LMAO
