Gorilla Glue vs Silicone

[mh32]

I'm wondering what everyone prefers to attach their coco or peat to a GS background. I'm trying to decide with would be best comparing cost, ease of use, and how long it will last.

I was also wondering about a wood floor varnish. I know when that stuff dries it is completely waterproof. But would it leach chemicals when exposed to water for a long period of time?

as far as what tends to be the most popular choice for attaching the coco to your GS background is it unanimously GE type 1 or 2 silicone generally the black version there is a bit of debate about the safety of type 2 but many use it and it works well for everyone who has used it and as far as the wood stain my opinion on that is if you arent sure as to the chemical fastness of the product err on the side of safety and choose something else =)

I'd have to go with Athen on this. Silicone is MUCH less expensive than Gorilla Glue for your background and I would not feel comfortable using varnish for the very reasons you mention, possible toxin leaching.
