Re-glue part of rubbing strake

Hello all, bit of advice/guidance please

I need to re-glue part of the rubbing strake onto pvc tube. I have mek to remove old glue and know that I need to abrade the tube and strake before gluing. The question is, do I coat the strake with hypalon glue first and let dry before using pvc glue?

Thanks

Stephen

If the strake is PVC just use PVC glue

Hello. Thanks for your question. Here is a golden rule to help with yours and other similar projects:
A/. PVC Adhesive does not stick to Rubber/Hypalon
B/. PVC Adhesive will stick to Hypalon Adhesive
If you prime your Hypalon Panels with Hypalon adhesive and let it dry, then you can use your PVC 2 Part Polymarine Adhesive to compete the task of Adhering the Hypalon panels (or rubber accessories) to you PVC Sponsons. Make sure that you follow the instructions on the packs for the proper use of adhesive.
Best Wishes, Polymarine.
