Adhesives for polyester? fuse.

[David Harmon]

Mark...GE Silicone ll Household glue works great for formers, servo
mounts etc.
Those poly fuses are hard to glue to. Some of the newer ZAP products may
be good
too but I haven't tried them. Just don't use PFM or any glue that has
'Goop' or 'Goo'
in the name. That stuff has a reaction with and makes a bump or line on
the poly and epoxy fuselages.
Some guys use the GE stuff on the firewalls too...just make a fillet on
the front and back.

I recently finished a piorun Oly Medal.   I have had several glue joints
pop. 
  At the field one of the med sait I should have used CA.   The epoxy
that I 
used was 2 hour Bob Smith mixed with silica filler. I cleaned the fuse
with 
acetone and sanded the areas to be glued with 80 grit cloth.  I didnt
stress 
the jopints for grreater than 48 hours.  

Is there a Best way to glue polyester Fuses pieces into place?
