Adhesive question

[gib.bogle]

I have a problem with our stainless steel sink counter-top. In one area th e top has become detached from the wooden base, and lifted slightly, affect ing the draining and causing water to pool. It doesn't take much force to push it down. I am thinking about drilling a couple of holes up through th e base from underneath and injecting some adhesive. What would be the righ t adhesive to use, i.e. what sticks to stainless steel?

Thanks Gib

Almost anything sticks to ss. epoxy is the most reliable.

Absolutely nothing if the cause of it lifting was water getting between the steel and the wood. Unless both items to be joined are clean and dry no common adhesive will work.
