The carpet in my boat is starting to pull up and I'd like to get it glued back into place... any recommendations on glue?

3M spray adhesive I believe will do the trick.

Waterproof contact cement. I used it for the same reason and for the first time a few days ago and it worked great. Just apply the CC to both sides with a cheap paint brush and then give it a few minutes to become tacky. Then press together. Piece of cake!

Where can you get some of that contact cement? I needed some when I did a project in my boat and came across a few spots that are coming up.

West Marine probably has that contact cement. or you could probably order it online from a 3M dealer.

3M makes some Industrial Contact Cement that is amazing. don't think consumers can order it though. the 3M website has a complete listing of all products and cements, adhesives, etc. they offer. there are some descriptions and applications listed on there, i believe.
