What is the recommended adhesive to stick the EVA gasket to fin ?. I'm using silicone, but that is failing. Nb/ Gasket is squeezed onto board quite a bit. See pic below. Thanks.

I used Fast-Cure 3M 4200 until I found this stuff, which is better for porous surfaces and cures more reliably:

To stop the Knead It sticking to the board. Maybe its not needed, I wasn't prepared to take the risk.

Fixed above issue using epoxy. Used fin yesterday. Works a treat. This has solved a 6 month bugbear. Thanks all
