Recommendation for a filler/adhesive that'll stick to damp surface?

    Needed as temporary measure - the stick-on flashing around the bottom of a timber wall has come unstuck and rain is getting in. As a temp measure, is there any filling-adhesive that can be used to reattach, that will adhere to the damp timber boarding?

    StixAll works 'underwater' apparently, but will it actually stick to damp shiplap?

    Cheers.

    (It's not my hoosie, so giving 'distant' advice to victim - so I cannot check it for myself either...)

    You mean StixAll?

    What about 'Sticks like S***'? Is that an equivalent. (The guy has a SF near him - but they don't stock StixAll).

    Cheers.
