Curious if anyone here has used the construction adhesive product and your thoughts on the product? I have used the tape as well as the glue for different projects and overall happy with the exception of the glue expanding like it does.
I was wondering if anyone has used the construction product and if it expands like the glue or is it similar to other products out there? I am looking to install stainless steel diamond plate to wood and hope to accomplish it without the need of screws for a set of stair risers in the man cave.
Anyone who has used this and or done something similar I would appreciate your feedback.
You glued a mirror to the wall?
Did you notice any expansion from the wall after drying like you would find with the glue product?

Thanks I was also looking into this product it has pretty good reviews and my major concern is a tight close fit.
I have been a fan of Gorilla products for sometime but the glue always expands and is a pain in the ass for cleanup. The tape I swear you could build a house with that stuff is tuff as nails.
It’s used for masonry and building and other major jobs. And a lot of permanent mirrors are set with this type of product.

No. It it's solid and still flush against the wall. Used braces to secure it while it dued
Was there a reason you couldn't use mirror clips, or did you not like them aesthetically?
Since it's a relatively small area you're covering you might want to consider troweling out the adhesive after it's down with a small v-notch trowel to make sure you get even distribution. If you get any squeeze out on the edges I believe PL glues will clean up with mineral spirits pretty easily.

Liquid Nails makes a special adhesive just for mirrors. It's not uncommon for builders to use large mirror panels, hang them with adhesive and then apply left over casings/mouldings to make a frame around it for a cheap dress-up.
