Hey guys! It was available so I used 3M 5200 marine adhesive/sealant to glue the plastic CHRYSLER letters (chrome plated plastic letters and medallions off junk-yard cars) onto my outboard hood. It still feels a little rubbery after about two weeks. Question--Is this compound strong enough so that the letters are on permanently? In other words, if I were to try to pull them off, would the paint fail first? Question for next time: Is there a better glue for this type application?
The nice thing about this stuff was that I had a good few hours to move the letters around and get them absolutely straight and aligned; it is white so it does not show against the white paint.
