Thanks for the help
I called 3M and they recommended an industrial adhesive #78,
I guess there are different ways to do this but I sure don't want to do all this work just to have the heat or whatever delaminate anything I have done.
If anyone knows of someway or something like an H-channel to connect two .040 aluminum edges please feel free. I am not using the typical .024 1" mesa on this. I am using flat .040 alum, 4x8x12. There is only one short section at the cab over that I would need the H-channel.
I am also going to risk using regular vinyl window sliders and single hung, rather than the radius windows. I have not seen this done but I cannot see why it would not work if it is all sealed properly.
As for the roof-Not certain whether to use alum. or 1/4" plywood, with a rubber membrane over that. Any advice on that would be much appreciated.
And if I can also find help with the door- I need to replace the frame and door as well.
Take care and thanks again
