    Depending on where you are trying to hang things and what you are trying to hang, I'm not sure liquid nails will work due to the amount of drying time it needs. If you just want to put hooks up, check into the command strips and see if there is one for outdoor. If you outside but in an area under a roof you can still use the indoor type. Some hold up to 50lbs.

    That does help, I want to put up curtain mounts on smooth interior old plaster walls I have tried drilling and useing anchors but the plaster was harder then usual closer to the lathe so the anchors just pull out over time. what about Gorilla glue?
