Might want to be a bit more specific to get a good response - are you talking about face to face (ie like gluing two sheets to make a thicker sheet) or joining two pieces at 90 degrees (which you would want to add biscuits, dominoes, dowels, etc...)?
(In general, any woodworking glue is fine with plywood, but the specifics will help)
Joining two pieces that will have dominoes.
It’s polywood not plywood. The fake wood that outdoor furniture is being made out of now.
This is from the literature from Vetus, a manufacturer of poly wood sheet goods :
Experience to date has shown that the following adhesive is suitable for bonding Poly-wood: 3MTM Scotch-WeldTM DP8005.
This is a two-part acrylic based adhesive. After the adhesive is ap- plied, substrates must be mated within the worklife of the adhesive, 2-2.5 minutes for one-sided applications. The bonded should be fixu- red or clamped for at least 2 hours. For further information, please visit the website: http://www.3m.com/bonding.
Thanks to everyone for your input and suggestions!
