use a roller to make sure you have even adhesion.
I normally don't install acrylic shower walls, most clients want tile, but this product worked very well and bonded almost instantly. You may have to roll the seams a few times to keep them tight.

I'm a novice
Using this with a caulk gun to caulk my bathroom was a piece of cake, although a bit messy.I'd advise you use a little and then use a paper towel to smooth it out / press into the crevices.You can always add more if needed! If you put to much it will smear and get a bit messy.

Wall must be porous, buy more that you think you need
Overall, seems to work ok. Two major observations:Thankfully I was alerted by another review that this does not work with waterproof drywall (and several other materials). It needs a porous wall material to cure.I ended up putting up plywood since it doesn't crumble like drywall if it gets wet. Time will tell whether or not that was a good choice.In the grand scheme of things, the shower surround should provide all of the waterproofing necessary.Also of note. This adhesive is fairly thick, almost like a grainy putty.If you're installing a thin glue up surround with large flat panels, I recommend coating nearly 100% of the wall with the adhesive. I found that the normal S like pattern will cause the panel to be slightly wavy. It is impossible to get the glue spread thin enough to avoid this.The wavy appearance is not extremely noticeable, but it is there. I can see it in the reflection of the shiny plastic, and feel it running my hand over it.The first panel I put up (the most visible one of course) was not to my liking, but I didn't have enough glue to change it and it was too late. Most people probably won't notice, but I do because I installed it.Might depend on how thin the surround plastic is. I definitely did not purchase one of the higher end shower surrounds. So it might be unavoidable in some cases.If it matters, buy extra glue. And be careful to spread evenly with a trowel as directed. Maybe it will reduce the ripples.Other than that, no issues. I followed the directions and cleaned the plastic with rubbing alcohol before glueing.

By Far my Favorite Adhesive
i have gorilla wood glue, liquid nails, and this loctite. i also have loctite instant glue.the instant glue works the fastest but it doesn't spread well, so it can only be used for small projects.did a glue test with the other three. glued two pieces of wood together.the fastest to adhere - loctitethe slowest to adhere - liquid nailshowever, in the end all 3 formed a great bond that is still bonded months later.

Instant grab is a true statement
I used this Loctite Power Grab to apply decorative ceiling tiles in our spare bath. I misplaced a tile not paying attention I had to remove it and after approx 10 min of tile being in the wrong place some of dry wall came with the tile, so moral of the story is pay attention to what your doing.
