Re: [DIY] What's a good adhesive for sticking vinyl cladding back to Andersen doors?

 

Take this with a grain of salt, maybe someone else will have a more informed idea.
Urethane glue needs moisture to set. It may work. It sets really hard so if flexibility is an issue, it may not be a good glue to use.
It came to mind because I've used in woodworking to set glued joints. Its really tough stuff and needs a little water to get it to set. Really messy if you get it on your hands or anything else. It almost has to wear off, nothing cleans it off your hands or anything else when it gets where you don't want it.

Hi, In 1994 my husband and I had a contractor build a 3-season room on the north side of our Cape Cod style house.  One wall consists almost entirely of an Andersen 12' slider with fixed windows on each side and a second wall consists almost entirely of an Andersen 15' slider also with fixed windows on either side.  On the 15' slider I just noticed that the vinyl cladding is coming loose from whatever material is underneath (wood, I assume) in four places along the bottom.  In the worst place the bottom 3" of vinyl has lifted.  Because it is on the north side of the house that wall never gets the sun so the wood will probably never dry out.  So I'm looking for the best way to get that cladding adhered back to the wood.  Any ideas?  This problem has not happened on the 12' slider.  Thanks.  Joycei
