Pat that sounds like a good product to use too. The panel adhesive we used does dry pretty stiff from what we could see, but he has so many crossmembers in the floor there should be very little flex, if any. I'll have to remember the windshield stuff though.

Steve, the only thing about it for a small job is the cost. The gun is about $80 and each tube setup is about $ 50.......it took 3 tubes to do his floor. Pat mentioned 3M 5200 and it is a one part that really caulks and makes stuff adhere. It comes in white or black and once it sets up it is there for life. It is also cheaper, about $ 10 or so a tube and it works in a standard caulking gun. Only drawback is that it takes days to cure versus 4 hours with the two part panel adhesive.

Here is a picture of the adhesive we used and the applicator.

Oh, the Camaro went to great crusher in the sky today. I looked it over to see if anything could be salvaged but it was all so far gone everything was shot. Must have been a northern car because of the rust and also it was a non air conditioned car originally.
