Umm... the whole point of this thread was to make that statement? Or do you have a question somewhere deep within that subliminal message?

+1 for the hot melt glue gun. I use them alot on speaker box fabrication; they make a better sealer than silicon and hold carpet on better than the spray glue.

Glue gun… I’ve used it for joints that I wanted to take apart later, but never used one for anything permanent. I’d be worried that it would eventually fall apart on it’s own when used in a car interior.

Re: Glue Gun
Wood glue and brads… sometimes I’ll use polyurethane glue, if the joint doesn’t fit air tight you didn’t cut it right, and I’ve built boxes that people thought looked so cool that they were just coated with tung oil and left like that, basically bare MDF.

Re: Glue Gun
I use the brads, and wood glue the seams before I put them together, the hot glue goes inside to form an airtight seal. You can use more wood glue for this but it's way faster to just lay a line down with a hot melt glue gun. Hot glue won't bond to wood, but it will fill seams. For that matter brads alone won't hold the wood together after time they'll pull loose, always use quality wood glue between every joint.

Re: Glue Gun
I just gone done using a hot glue gun to attach black vinyl to my sail panels. Its not the best on the corners, but it worked pretty good, I think once they are screwed in the car, they'll be ok. I cant wait to use the glue gun again!!

Re: Glue Gun
I agree, I used a hot glue gun, today installing my black door panels. Came in real handy!

Re: Glue Gun
I spent $2.10 at a dollar store. Got a Glue Gun and 50 glue sticks. overall the gun is junk but ive fixed many more then 2 dollars worth of things with it. They work great for repairing damaged interior bolt holes
