Most people on here just float it and use the trim to hold it on or indoor/outdoor carpet adhesive

I don't see any type of glue holding it... smooth metal to wood is extremely difficult....but if you find any, let us know.

George you wouldn't want to use the heavy duty construction adhesive if the SS is very thin, I would suggest either the spray adhesive as mentioned or in the same section as the const, adhesive will be mirror adhesive that will not be so thick. In other words you would not like the outcome of using a thick adhesive as it would be noticeable through the skin.

Also I would not soley rely on any adhesive alone. Hold it with trim as mentioned or use som SS screws.
