    Bonding OC703 to bare MDF

    I'm thinking of using a spray adhesive to bond some OC703 sheets to the inside of an enclosure and have done some preliminary research which has turned up four products from two manufacturers:

    1) "Dan Tack" contact spray
    2) V&S 1081 Spray Adhesive
    3) V&S 1090 High Strength Spray Adhesive
    4) V&S 185 Spray Adhesive

    Each seems to have an acceptable description for the application but that doesn't always translate to the real world, which is why I'm here-

    has anyone used one or more of these and has a preference?

    Thanks

    I've used the cheap spray adhesive from Ace. I don't think you need to think about this too much. Hot glue also works really well. Bigger problem is not getting the stuff to stick, but it is getting it to not come apart. Best is to cut it to fit and wedge it into place so that you don't need the glue.

      yeah I am most concerned about it not coming off because that wouldn't be immediately obvious. That's why I want to use an adhesive. Spray because it's easy to use.

      Sounds like any of the four would work... they are cheap at $12 a can anyhow.

        3M super 77 is easy to come by and works well in a lot of applications. You could always cut an inch or two and do an overnight or two test to see how it holds.

          Hot glue for the inside of a speaker enclosure.

          Quick easy and no off-gassing volatile fumes.
