Want to glue some 1" styrofoam insulation board to a cement block wall. Will liquid nails work?
Thank you

I see a lot of the guys have experienced the melt down of certain glues...heres a story of mine. Once had a job of rebuilding a 75 HP floating areator. I got to rebuild the lower part...the thing had upset and had 4 pie shaped plastic sections to make the whole works float on a pond. One of the guys on maintenance at the company got to rebuild the floats so he went to the local parts house and got a gallon of body filler and commenced redoing the floats. It went real smooth so he finished up and went to the cafeteria and it was coffee and bs till the boss came around and asked him if he had the job done. he was kinda proud of how smooth the job had come out and invited the boss to come and look at it. When they opened the door to where the job had been done .....the whole thing had melted down to the floor and ruined it! They say the old boy who did the job slapped both sides of his cheeks and said I"m dead, I"m dead! I think these were ABS plastic, so as the fellows say...check before using. Fred OH

PL300 is made to glue styrofoam or expanded polystyrene or beadboard. Three names for same stuff. Liquid nails will melt styrofoam. If you are covering it up and just need to hold it until then, anything will work. A press fit between studs works fine without any adhesive.

I've used Liquid Nails for both polystyrene and isocyanate foam. It worked for either one. I think they make a special Foamboard version of Liquid Nails, but I don't know what's special about it. Whatever you use, be sure and test it with your foam, some solvents will attack certain types of foam.

Before you buy a large quantity of Liquid Nails, do a test on your material to be glued. It might melt the styrofoam. Try any adjesive first before your install it.
