Did you screw it down or adhesive?

My exterior application was to replace the teak on the bowsprit w/Plasteak. I bolted a one piece plastic underlayment (I think it was 1/4" thick) where the original teak ( cracking and in constant need of oiling or recoating with poly) was fastened. Then screwed Plasteak boards to the underlayment. Used the old teak pieces as templates. For your needs, you may want to ask the mfr -- I just don't know if it's glue-able. Info may be on their web site. I can say this, though -- I had some leftover pieces that I used at home in the garden and today, about 25 yrs later, they are new-like under lots of sun and moisture. Exterior teak just isn't worth the maintenance effort. Inside, coated with poly or just oiled, it's fine -- the dun does a number on it
