Suggestions on an adhesive

[nbpt100]

I am looking for an adhesive to attached a large glass mirror to a frame that became about 50% detached. The frame is a bit flimsy and easily flexes. The original adhesive seemed to have some flex to it. It is not rock had like many epoxy adhesive.

I am thinking of using construction adhesive. I also have some Loctite Extreme glue. I am considering that since i have an unopened tube of it. It says it is impact resistant and will fill gaps.

Any one with relevant experience care to comment?

Silicone.

Pretty sure loctite makes a mirror adhesive. Not sure how flexible it is once cured.

I believe that is for attaching directly to a wall. Plaster, drywall, brick. In this case the frame is some kind of plastic.

It will then hang on the wall with a picture wire.

Silicone is probably the way to go.

But if you ever need an adhesive the is flexible and really strong, check out PERMABOND® MT382, a 2 part epoxy. I use it any time I need to glue something on a vehicle, like trim.

Dow Corning 732 silicon and it’ll last your lifetime.

I'd probably use Polyseamseal by Loctite. But I'd want to test to see how good any product adheres to both surfaces.

Some construction adhesives are okay, but the product's task is usually just to hold a panel in place while it slowly, slowly cures.

3m weatherstripping adhesive seems to stick to anything/everything and is flexible.

I've used E6000 many times and I think it would work well for this. Sticks to anything including glass, it's a bit tougher than silicon but still has some flexibility. Relatively inexpensive and widely available.

if it’s in a frame why not just type it in place like pictures
