I used a single tube of Tigerseal PU adhesive for my floor. It just happened to be what I could get my hands on. I think lots of people also used Sikaflex 221, but its all the same sticky crap that ruins anything it touches!

I could not say steel to steel because we always paint the chassis
I had the same thought. Which is why I never painted the chassis the floor sticks too. The PU sealant squeezes out when you rivet the aluminium on, so the metal is covered and protected.
