Hey, Guys, was on some backroads and bounced my rearview mirror right off the windshield. Have read some reviews from the Big Box stores and none seem to carry a product that gets consistent results (positive anyway). I feel silly for asking, but any recommendations as to a tried and true, surefire adhesive?

The one from Walmart, can't remember the brand, permex? Worked really well for me. The cardboard backing is blue. Just remember to clean windshield well, and scrape off all traces of old adhesive.

I used a 2 part rapid set epoxy adhesive over here it's called araldite rapid even though it says " not suitable for rearview mirrors" it's still there !
