Can anyone tell me what't the best bonding material out there that sticks down painted fiberglass (I think) body panel to painted metal? Was given some black sticky stuff from the body shop in a toothpaste tube but still no good.

Cheers

For a permanent fixture try araldite rapid http://www.amazon.co.uk/Araldite-Rapid-Tube-Pack/d...

Used it on a few body repairs on my Cerbera, but you will need clamps while it sets

phone up you local paint supplier and ask for a PU Adhesive. You can get this in grey/black or white, it is used for bonding kits etc...you need to key both surfaces to about 240 grade paper. You will also require a gun (B&Q) and some panel wipe from your paint supplier to wipe of the excess. Leave for about 15 hours and it will have set properly. Its also over paintable.
