FRP adhesive is the glue that bonds Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) panels to a substrate. It’s designed to handle the unique expansion, flexibility, and moisture-resistant needs of FRP.
FRP adhesive is a specialized construction adhesive formulated to bond FRP panels to surfaces like:
Drywall
Plywood
Cement board
Concrete
Plaster
It’s much stronger than regular construction glue and is made to prevent bubbling, warping, and delamination.
Types of FRP adhesives
1. Water-Based Mastic (Most Common)
Thick, trowel-applied adhesive
Best for porous surfaces (drywall, plywood, OSB)
Low odor, easy cleanup
Not ideal for non-porous or cold environments
2. Solvent-Based FRP Adhesive
Stronger bond
Works on non-porous surfaces
Better performance in humidity
Requires good ventilation
3. Two-Part Epoxy Adhesive
Extremely durable
Used in industrial or commercial installs
Bonds to almost anything
More expensive & very permanent
Key Benefits
Strong, long-lasting bond
Moisture and mildew resistant
Prevents bubbling and panel movement
Works with FRP’s natural flexibility
Adheres to many substrate types
