Hi all!

I was installing some bamboo hardwood flooring and ran out of Robert's 1408 (which was the recommended brand) with only a 6x2 area remaining.

Needless to say that my local hardware stores only carry 4 or 5 gallon containers, I searched everywhere and couldn't even find a 2 gallon container.

My question is where can I find an online store that will ship an adequate bamboo flooring adhesive that comes in a one gallon container?

You should be able to find a gallon of uretnae adhesive at at any of the box stores. Doesn't really matter what brand, since it is such a small area, and no doubt, not in a main area since you are just finishing up the project.

You would think...in my area only Home Depot carries a 1 gal adhesive, and it's latex based. Trust me, I've looked everywhere for 3 weeks now, I'm at wits end.

Where is the missing area located? If in an obscure location, you could even use a urethane adhesive in tubes to finish up the job. (PL PREMIUM) or the like.

You may try a wood flooring distributor , or any floor covering distributor that supplies to installers. Good chance you'll find Bostik in pouches, or sausages there. Or maybe a less expensive urathane adh.
