Should i glue sink to vanity

It's probably not a glue but silicon based caulking to waterproof the seam. Should be very easy to remove. It's fairy cheap and comes in a variety of colors including clear. It's used becsue it waterprrofs the seams and has just enough adhesion to keep it in place but not enough that you can't remove it.

This is not a sink that has a lip going around that sits on top of the counter top. It has to be something really strong and also waterproof. Originally Posted by bellalunatic. Sounds like calking. Yes undermount sinks are mounted without clips or screws of any kind.

All the time. It's a special cement I do believe avalable to the Solid Surface and the granite industries. I have known more intelligent people who work as a Walmart greeter then Home Depot minimum wage clerks.

That is solid and complete truth. Why do people think those clowns have any degree of intelligence? I have to assume you have a standard sized vanity with a top. Just go out and buy a new cultured marble top. It's all one piece. If your sink came apart from its top then the cement failed. This is a 2 piece set up.

By the time you scraped the old cement clean and found the proper cement, even if you could, it's more trouble then it's worth. If you insist of fixing the old one you will have to take it off, disconnect it from the plumbing, clean it and lay it upside down.

Good luck. Set the faucet and knobs into the holes from the top of the vanity top. Secure them in place with metal washers and the long nuts supplied with the faucet. Push the flange downward, engaging it with the putty and securing it to the vanity top. Install the threaded flange on the bottom of the sink portion of the vanity top. Install the lock nut onto the flange, screwing only a few threads just to hold it in place.

Connect the tailpiece for the drain by screwing it onto the flange. Align the pop-up lever so that it points toward the wall once you have the tailpiece screwed all the way on. Test them to make sure they move and work properly. Carefully lower the vanity top down onto the cabinet, centering it so that each side has the same amount of overhang. Be careful not to dislodge the shims. Originally Posted by porwolf.
