Q:Will this adhere to redgard?
by|Sep 23, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Thank you for the question. Loctite Power Grab Tub Surround Adhesive is compatible with the RedGard product. However, if you are installing a non-porous tub surround and bonding it to RedGard, which is also non-porous, the adhesive will not bond or cure properly. This product is a latex, water-based adhesive and requires at least one bonding surface to be porous for it to work effectively. It cannot bond two non-porous substrates together.

    Q:Why can I use for an under mounting vanity bracket(need to hold the weight of the vanity
    by|Sep 18, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Thank you for the question. Loctite Power Grab Tub Surround Construction Adhesive is not well suited for the intended use of application. In general, construction adhesives should not be used as the sole means of support. Permanent mechanical support should always be used, for safety reasons. If you'd like to share the specific details of your application, please reach out to our team at 1-800-624-7767 so we can help you.

      Q:will this product bond the polystyrene to sanded plywood
      by|Aug 11, 2023
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  Thank you for the question. Yes, Loctite Power Grab Tub-Surround Construction Adhesive will bond a polystyrene surround to unpainted, unsealed plywood. It is important to apply the adhesive to the polystyrene first, and not to the wall. Applying this adhesive to the wall first will not allow the adhesive to develop a good bond to the surround.

          Does not adhere
          Did not adhere to tub surrounding. Left to dry for 40 hours and was still tacky in places. The dried areas had no strength and I was able to peel off the corner piece with no effect.

            Waste of money, get the cheap product.
            Lasted a year, just like the rest. Wasted money on this more expensive product. It is peeling away and molding, just like the other products. I cleaned the area with a tooth brush. Dried it with a hair dryer, and let it set for hours to dry. I caulked, placed 4 40 pound bags of salt in the tub. Left the house for a week on vacation. All this extra work and I am still caulking with in a year. This product is harder to get off, so your only giving yourself more work next year.

              Quality
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I felt this LOCTITE Power Grab Tub surround construction adhesive was a quality product. It was easy to use, and applied smoothly with a caulk gun. The adhesive itself was a nice smooth creamy consistency. It adheres evenly and dries quickly. It seems to hold well. It can be used on multiple surfaces. I do appreciate the low odor as well.

                Holds great
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this loctite for our shower surround. My husband put the caulk/glue stuff in a few weeks ago and it hasn't come off at all. It really holds good.

                  Nice!
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product. It was very easy to use and works great. It has a nice hold on the tub, it does not move. Which is what you’re looking for. It was very easy to apply and set. I would definitely recommend this to any one looking for a construction adhesive.

                    Works great and Easy to use
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After receiving the Power Grab Express 9 fl. oz. Tub Surround Construction Adhesive. It works great and is easy to use. I applied it using a caulking gun tool. I used it on my bathtub and shower replacing the old caulk. It resists moisture, steam, water, heat or cold when fully cured. It has a very low odor and requires only soap and water to clean up. I am very satisfied.

                      Wonderful Adhesive
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had to install a tub/shower surround. I used the Loctite Power Grab Express 9 0z.Tub Surruon Adhesive. It was so easy to use. Put it in your calk gun and apply to the backside of the surround. Put it in place and.. Viola..you're done. So easy and no mess.

                        No better than the cheapest caulk
                        Thai is the third caulk I've tried.ni went more expensive this time. I used a hair dryer to dry out the caulk area, let it set while on vacation for a week with bags of salt in the tub. It's been less than a year, and the caulk is peeling away from the seam.

                        We're sorry to hear our product didn't work as you expected. Loctite Power Grab Tub Surround Construction Adhesive is an adhesive product, designed to adhere tub and shower surrounds to drywall, not a sealant and therefore would not be well suited for the purpose you described. It should not be exposed or used in seams. Please give us a call so we can help recommend an appropriate product for your application.

                          Only thing available, ended up being perfect.
                          I needed an adhesive to hang tile for a vanity backsplash and my store was out of all other adhesives. This stuck subway tile on painted drywall, it didn't budge but I could wiggle it a bit if I needed to adjust the tile. I'll use this for every project
