Mirror bonding kit that doesnt suck!

[Orionaut]

Any recommendations?

I am wanting to re-bond my RVM which chose to randomly fall off the wind screen just the other day.

Past experience of Halfrauds/Factors mirror bonding kits has been poor.

Can anybody recommend one that actually works?

(Car is E36, I did actually contact BMW to ask if they had an OEM one. Yep, £30 and sent from Germany as "Hazardous goods" with a lead time of weeks! This should be a simple problem, I really do not believe it! why is this so ****ing hard )

Don't use 2 part epoxy like araldite - I have seen this cause cracking twice, must get hot when curing or something.

Loctite 319, 4 quid from rainforest place.

Loctite 326 and Loctite 7249

Voxination can vouch for their effectiveness as his was bonded back on to his E46 with the same

So that's what it was! Can confirm it works very well (unless Lee is able to tell us that the RVM has since fallen off multiple times since buying it?!)

Have you got an AutoGlass depot near you? I hung around our local one at closing time and grabbed a guy as he was packing up his van, he was more than happy to stick it back on for me in return for some beer money.
