laminate adhiesion

just curious what everyone is using to adhere the laminate to the floors . i have used resin and also high strength adhesives. both have good and bad.

i used red oak non paperback laminate its 1/16 thick. i bought a a cabinet shop

ya i used 1/2 oz mat over the top

Are you covering a shit area, or is this new wood over non existent wooded area?
if you are covering old balsa that is cracked out or other issues, you will find that most likely that the problem will show up sooner rather later (Generally speaking!)
Ive used the thin lam on transoms of Birds eye maple, turned out real nice IMO, one thing to remember when dealing with the thin stuff, when its wetted down, the Knots are prone to becoming weak spots if you feel the need to play with it, this was my problem in dealing with the Maple product.
Good luck and throw up some pics!!

no after the stringers were re-glassed and sanded down I used thin laminate over the whole stringer. this is just for beauty and not structural
