I was just going to the store to buy some gorilla glue to fix around one wheel well today.

THANKS for that tip and advice about not using the other glues. Owe you one! :B

I used Gorilla Glue to fix the first 2 feet top to bottom on the side of our camper. If clamped properly, it only expands out of cracks and other openings. I've used a Liquid Nails type adhesive before with less than satisfactory results. It's also hard to get a thin coat with the caulk tube adhesives.
I've got another section to do and I'll use the Gorilla Glue again. It is messy as all get out, though.

Gorilla is a polyurethane glue that expands as it cures. I would not use any polyurethane glue for this purpose. I might consider using a gap filling Cyanoacrylate glue like THIS.

I used Titebond wood glue. Clamped 48 hours. Epoxy failed. Did not try Gorilla.

Thanks for the replies. I was afraid of the expansion of the glue. I have read that people like the loc-tite version instead of liquid nails. I was going to use a brush or roller to apply just a skim coat. I have never used gorilla glue before, and I am not sure how much it expands.

If you are going to use glue, I would try Liquid Nails, available at Lowes/Home Depot. Use a thin layer and allow 24 hrs to dry. Maybe hold it down while setting with masking tape. Merrkalia is correct in that Gorilla glue expands.

I have had no problem with delamination, but the good thing/problem with Gorilla glue is that is that it expands. I would think it would cause more of a problem, causing it to raise more.

Just my thoughts.
