Will PL Premium adhesive bond 1 x 2 pressure treated sleepers (laid
flat) to an outdoor concrete slab that has a sound surface?
The slab is not sealed, not shiny smooth but also not pitted to any
great extent.
Thanks!

A popular construction adhesive. They barely try to hide the label when
they use it on DIY shows and This Old House. Must not be "fully sponsored".
Who makes it????
Loctite
What does their label and their web site say????
Recommended For:
Bonding most common construction materials such as wood, treated wood,
hardwood flooring, concrete, stone, marble, slate, masonry, brick, foam
insulation of all sorts, carpets, metal, lead, cement-based products,
ceramic, fiberglass, drywall and mirrors.
Allow me to reword my question:
Does anyone have any experience using PL Premium adhesive to bond 1 x 2

I've used PL Premium quite a bit over the past 5 years.

But only for wood-to-wood bonding.
My gut feeling is that it will not work very well for concrete-to-wood
bonding regardless how clean the concrete surface is. But I believe
that LePage says that it will work on concrete - so maybe I'm completely
wrong.
Buy a small tube and give it a try.

No experience with that product. I can say that a urethane caulk
adhesive is said to stick to a 'ball of lard".
They build buses, cars, box cars for trains, etc., using it.
Get some on you: throw the clothes out and chew this stuff off your
fingers to get it off :-\
I've used urethane caulk in a few places. We joke; "I'd hate to be
the person doing any removal."
Buy it in caulk tubes. Some cost $7.00 a tube ten years ago.
