adhesive for bullnosing

[KATIEKAMM]

I have a small strip of granite to adhere to the front edge of the countertop for the appearance of a thicker slab & a lip for the counter.  What kind of glue to I purchase & what kind of store can I purchase it from?  Thanks

if you epoxy the strip to the FRONT of the granite, youre going to end up with an eyesore of a seam on top, towards the edge. the way the laminations are done, is they glue the strip on the bottom, flush with the end of the slab piece. they then grind and polish to the desired edge detail and finish. this can be done wet or dry, either way youre asking for a big mess. i would strongly recommend hiring an experienced fabricator/installer to do the work.

Cameron, I think that is what he meant, the front edge of the granite glued to the bottom.

You definitely want to use epoxy. We carry many kinds. Here is a link:

If you have no experience and both pieces are already polished try the Instant Install as it won't stick to or color enhance the already polished edges.

Glad to be of service,
