Sliding window catch (aftermarket) rebonding - which glue

[Velosaurus]

Hi the aftermarket sliding window plastic catch has debonded from the side window glass on my van. Any recommendations on which glue to use to re-attach please? I was wondering if one of the Sikaflexs would do it? Thanks Andy

I’d use 2 part epoxy resin glue
Sometime like this

Hi Velosaurus, I have the exact same issue on the same window, did you use the bonding product The flying Scotsman suggested...if so any good? Cheers Jay P.

Not got round to it yet. Think I will go for this stuff or an equivalent Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) based high performance structural adhesive when do as its what Camperglass recommend for their window catch rebonding.

Through no fault of Camper Glass, DX finally managed to get this to me (needs an 18+signature as it's a glue)

Interesting that it is actually labelled as Latch Glue, so maybe it does happen more than we realise? Will give it a go soon.

Update. Bought this stuff Sealey Rapid Set MMA adhesive 25ml. Quick job. Held catch in place with tape. Given it a good waggle and not going anywhere.
