What can I use to "glue" down the grass mat to the wooden table top I'm guessing some type of plastic glue so it won't melt the underside of the mat...also will a hair dryer get creases out of the mat, I know you can shape it with a heat gun

Liquid Nails for Projects is a good general purpose adhesive that is safe for plastics.

The label for liquid nails for projects says on the label.... not for use with plastics, so I got a spray cay and it's not quite what I wanted so I'll get something different today and try again

Maybe the formula for Liquid Nails for Projects has changed...I haven't bought any in several years, but I have stuck a LOT of styrofoam together with it.  Woodland Scenics makes a product called Foam Tack Glue that should be safe, although I have no personal experience with it.

What type of grass mat it?  Most of the ones I have seen over the years have a paper backing with loose flecks of grass glued on If this is the case would not white glue do the trick?
