Hi Don,
Your progress looks great!!
The FLex Mend, h'mm I have had good luck with it. It is on my slide floor since 2010 and still bonded well. Also used it on the bottom of the main camper where a rip was. Wonder if your roll was old before you got it or something. I have not had that issue.
I also use Gorilla tape too. I used it on my bottom cover, the chloroplast plastic corrugated looking stuff. Put some on last year and I even used Naphtha to clean the surface before putting it on. Mixed results. Some bonded well, other areas let go by the wheel wells. Maybe spraying up road water got it?? And I even did the heat and press trick on the the gorilla tape too. Adhesives are a science all their own. Sometimes the margin for error is very small.
I for sure like the looks of your rubber spray. If it will stay bonded, that would be a real good fix. Your right, a zillion staples go in these things.
Thanks for sharing.
John
