Which adhesive is preffered?

For all the pros out there, I am about to add my transition pieces from laminate to stained concrete. I've heard a lot of complaints about just using the metal tracks due to the strips popping out. I plan on glueing. My question is 1) what brand/type adhesive would you recommend 2) Can I get it athe Home depot or Lowes 3) Do I glue it to the track or can I glue straight to the concrete? I'd rather not have to drill into the concrete if I can just glue.

Thanks in advance.

ps With all of your wisdom in previous posts I was able to install about 900 sq. ft by myself with out too many breakdowns.

Mount the molding in the track and run a bead of adhesive along the bottom of the track and pace it right where you want it and weight it down. Don't move the weights, for a day.
