High Density Urethane adhesive

Anybody know which adhesive is recommended to glue high density urethane foam 15lb density?

Hi, I use Gorilla Glue or West System Epoxy for this. Both work well, but with Gorilla you have the expansion and seepage issue as it expands 4 times the volume as it cures.

+1 on gorilla glue - it's what I use, but be watchful of the expansion and I typically use clamps.

I use the Gorilla glue as well with a healthy dose of water. Spread glue sparingly on one piece and flood the second with water (and I mean FLOOD). clamp together....white beads will appear quickly. The glue will be set in about 1/2 hour when it looses it's "stickiness". Use a putty knife to remove the "beads". Don't wait!!!!! If you do, the glue will tear out some of the foam along the joint when you try to remove it.

The water leaves a softer glue line that won't show when sanded or blasted...... a little side benny. Joe
