Tricky glue job, please help.

My rib has a section at the back tube which attaches top of the internal floor seat mounts. Its coming away, but its only 1/8th the way along and it has many overlapping points so i dont want to unglue the whole tail end just for this minor section (it just keeps the raised bench seat mount glued to the tube as such).

Is there a way to use a non 2 part glue so I can get the glue all the way into the crevice and join it to the hypalon and fiberglass on the seat?

I was thinking something like bostik super contact bond. We have that in Aus.

2-part will entail the same problem getting it in there as 1 part. The 2-parts are mixed, then applied.

yeah but i need to coats and keeping it seperated while the first coat dries is what im worried about, its hard to explain but its almost like a little pocket. the other glue i mentioned needs to coats too? if so your totally right. aghhh

try aquasure its a dry suit repair glue used to over coat the neoprene joints,or holes.
single part in a tube keep in the fridge after opening lasts longer.
squeeze into the pocket keep it pressed down with weight till dry, very strong stuff [clear liquid]

I've had good results with clear 2C epoxy. There is no solvent involved, so you don't need to keep the gap open, but the material must of course be clean and dry. To keep both sides together during the curing time (5-10 minutes) I use duct tape.

sounds good. of course ill try to sand as far in to the surface of the pocket as i can. its fairly non structural.
