I'll 2nd decorating direct, good and cheap and I've used copious amounts to stick my car together

Been down to local windscreen replacement people and got 2 tubes of windscreen adhesive for a fiver (drink) - good deal eh and plenty of spare to put the wings back on if they come off

Ive had a bad experience with the cheaper stff before. Ill now only use Wurth bond and seal or failing that genuine sikaflex. It costs a bit more but its a one off job.

I would have thought windscreen replacement stuff is equally as good needing to be a high performance automotive product.

I used a product called PU 40. It is a marine sealant and is resistant to salt water etc. Slightly dearer than some at about £8 but appears to be damn good stuff.

I've used Tigerseal for all my panels - pretty much the same as Sikaflex
I used the proper windscreen adhesive for my screen and it is much, much stronger.
