Thread: Fixing shelving to ply walls

I don't think that either of the glues mentioned would last long on the vinyl or whatever surface.
Any ideas welcome.

Sikaflex Pro, available in colours, sticks like the proverbial to a blanket.
Doesnt matter too much what the surface coating is, just use some duct tape to hold your support in place for 24+hrs and then fit your shelf.

All done, hopefully it lasts a long time ;-)
