Don't know about Gorilla Glue. Selley's Kwik Grip is the usual recommendation.

+1 Kwik grip or any contact cement. Think gorilla glue expands a small amount. Maybe not suitable for deck pads.

Yes - kwik grip but its' important to follow the instructions and not rush into gluing the surfaces before they are ready.

wash your deck pad and board with fresh hose water and detergent and scrub vigorously with a bannister brush then let it dry for a day....glue hates salt

Selleys have a new "clear" Quick Grip. Have used it on deck pads recently. Doesn't make the Eva foam expand like the original does.
And no yellow leftover!

I tried the clear stuff. Didn't hold like the good ole yellow stuff, but that could well have been operator error

Old clear was water based and crap.

The new clear one Selleys released is proper solvent based nasty smell and works just as good as the yellow I reckon
I find it gels a bit quicker so it tends to go on too thick though.....its goopier.

In yellow ones, just mask it well. Parfix is nice as its runnier and spreads nice n thin
