Gluing rubber to painted steel - Product?
(OP)
Hi
Has anyone have experience with gluing an EPDM rubber to a steel surface painted with an epoxy? I know that Rema Tiptop SC2000 could be used for bonding rubber to steel. I am not to sure what, if any, effect the epoxy paint would have.
Any suggestions would be appreciated before I do test?
Regards

What are the conditions? What are the loads? What strength do you need?
What is the bond strength between the steel and the paint? No point in using a super-strong glue if the weak link is going to be elsewhere.

I think you're asking for the impossible. But if you do manage to hit on it, give Halliburton, Schlumberger or Baker Oil Tool a call. You'll be extremely wealthy overnight!
On the flip side, never say never. Good luck with it!
