Thank you all so much for your guidance! Definitely means the world to me and my build.
I am leaning towards the Loctite Power Grab - as its readily available locally for a good price (box store), it's low odor/no VOC/water-based, and it seems pretty resilient to weather. Also, it looks like I won't have to press the crap out of it to get a good seal to the foam.
I like the Staybond product, but it is really expensive (not a completely deal-breaker). However, it dries red, which I fear will bleed through my Arctic White Filon roll.
Going to do a couple tests of composite panels this weekend before I start the build. Here's what I'm planning for my structure: 1/8" birch plywood on the interior, 1-1'2" XPS foam core, and filon on the exterior. I will try a couple different adhesives to see how they work.
Dang, this allergy sucks! Wish I could just glass and epoxy this job and call it good. Unfortunately, that would land me in the ER, and that's no bueno for me or anybody.
Thank you all so much for your help! Excited to get this trailer on the road. Will be sharing pics and progress on here throughout the build.
