When I bought my chimaera, the bonnet heat shield was already hanging low. After some search on pH I read I needed to use palty high temperature glue spray, so I ordered it and glued the heat shield back. Easy as that, only after 1 longer drive my heat shield has come loose again...bangheadbanghead
Can anyone give me any tips or tricks how the heat shield can be glued back on a more permanent base?
I can not take my bonnet off due to the bolts are stuck, so I need to make something while mounted to the car. I have the old type bonnet by the way

Yep, something nice and thick from a tin, as Chim 72 suggests, not spray glue.
