I tested 10 products: O gauge track to styrofoam for elasticity, adhesion & ability to remove from the metal tie. <br />the most adherant is PL300 but it cannot be removed from the metal tie and sets quickly, about 30 minutes. <br />The ideal adhesive is 'DAP all purposed adhesive caulk'. it is strong, viscous (not watery like elmer glue) & elastic.The viscousity spans a gap between the foam & tie of 3/32". It is easily removed from ties. <br />Titebond is watery, strong, brittle rather than elastic & difficult to remove from metal. <br />Hope that this helps.
