Default 2 Glue questions

1. What glue to use on a steel motor mount to APO foam on a FZ 48" piper cub? The factory uses something white and a bit flexible.

I have super rc Z 56 flexible for foams , Beacon Foam tac , or foam safe CA. Is any of these appropriate ? the best?


2. I'd like to reinforce my (fuse bottom) landing gear on my GP E-stik and it is plywood and maybe balsa on the sides. I want to cut a piece of plywood and simply glue it down as a doubler where the bolts go up thru. I may even screw 2 nuts on top of the re-inforcement piece. What glue to use?

I have elmers white glue (school glue) and tester's wood glue and CA of course. It's going to have some gap I'm afraid because of the T-nuts. Is these glues appropriate or the best?


Thanks, sorry it is basic question I have not much experience in repair or building. [&o]
