... to bond my prodrive elite boot lip to my car??

I have epoxy resin somewhere, the stuff in a double tube that you mix then apply, I'm sure that stuff would be ok but would anyone recommend anything better? maybe something they've personally used that they think has been more reliable?

someone elsewhere recommended using windscreen bonding silicone on the door mouldings, would this be just as good on my spoiler?

I used something called "Sikaflex" to stick the bottom of my rear windscreen, I used to use it at work to stick vertually anything, glass to glass, fibreglass to steel, wood to steel even around the bottom of the shower plus you can get it in different colours, white, black and grey as i know too.... Loads better than No nails

seen sikaflex 212, 221, 291, 295, 552

To be honest i would only guess that the numbers are something to do with the strength.
I used the black Sikaflex-265 which says on it Bus, Truck and Rail Direct Glazing Adhesive to re-seal my rear window.

Aaaaahhh...  Sikkaflex.........

What the big guy upstairs recommends to stick sh!t to your blankets.....


     

and it works!!

If you use epoxy it will never come off, if it does it will probably take the paint with it.

A flexible silicon based adhesive will be very strong but if you ever need to remove the spoiler at least it won't remove the paint.

i'll go on the hunt for a silicone based one soon then
