I'm going to install my clear lenses, but I need to glue them to the original backplate. What glue do you guys suggest? Goop? Epoxy resin?

I have not used Goop on lenses yet, but everything else that I have used it for has held very well.

there is a special adhesive for plastics. weld-on is the brand name. it is used in the sign industry to make channel letters. they make a lot of different specialty adhesives. use the thinned version to dry almost instantly and the thicker version for better strength. we use weld-on 16 for cast acrylic(plexiglas) signs.
