blue board in cages

redmoon Oct 28, 2007 02:12 PM

If I were to use blue board insulation in building a cage background, what would I need to use to attach it to the glass? Silicone doesn't seem to hold to the blue board very well in the bits that I've tried playing with.

thanks,
Ronnie Nocera

There is a liquid nails product made for foam board. Make sure to get the specific product as the others will melt it.

I assume it will stick to glass, but I'm not completely sure.

have you tried roughing up the back of the blueboard your attaching to the glass or scoring it? this will leve the surface more porous which will allow the silicone to penetraer into the foam and assist with bonding it.
