I have some marine carpet / flooring to lay down over aluminum. Any recommendations on best glue to use? Would Weldwood Landau Top glue be satisfactory?

Just and update. The Weldwood glue worked like a charm. First time spraying. Made the job a snap. Just did a few feet at a time. pics to follow.

@vicstric ,

From all I have seen this would be a contact cement you could use. I do know that some will eat the aluminum though. I am going to @John this as I know he has done a lot of boats.

Looks great. Yeah having a spray gun is really the only way to go when doing such large sections.
