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".

Allow me to reword my question:
Does anyone have any experience using PL Premium adhesive to bond 1 x 2 pressure treated sleepers (laid flat) to an outdoor concrete slab that has a sound surface?
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.
