Will Liquid Nails alone hold Carpet Tackless firmly in place on a Concrete Foundation Floor?

Probably will but be sure to install a moisture barrier - and that will need to be glued down too.Will Liquid Nails alone hold Carpet Tackless firmly in place on a Concrete Foundation Floor?
Liquid Nails is a permanent construction adhesive. I wouldn't recommend using it anywhere that it may ever have to be removed.
yes...if you let it set for 24 hrs before you walk on it.
Liquid Nails is perfect, since you probably do not have the right tool to penetrate the concrete. Install on CLEAN AND DRY concrete. Scrub it and wash it off and dry completely.


Use weighted objects (like 100 lbs or more ) on the carpet with 2 x 4's underneath the weights to evenly spread the compaction.


The adhesion will be there for you for a few years.


Good luck
yes, although if its on a floor that will be constantly in use, it will come loose after a while (years even) so not bad
I would get the real glue. not because liq nails wont hold but the glue will fell smoother under your feet. If you just have a surplus of liquid nails I think it will definitely hold it down I would try to scrape over it with a ridged trowel or what ever they call it so it will be smooth dont just shoot it in the floor. Good luck.
dude go to the hardware store, buy adhesive and a 5 dollar adhesive spreader.
