[QUOTE="longjohn119, post: 141012, member: 2826"] Thompson's says not to use latex (water based) paint for 45 days. Nearly all indoor/outdoor carpet adhesive is also water based so the same thing should apply. If you really want to seal up and waterproof wood then spar urethane is the way to go and adhesives tend to stick to it better. It's a little more costly and a little harder to work with but since it's getting covered up you can just slop it on there and not worry about brushmarks or small runs and you can use cheap throwaway paintbrushes.
