Hmmm, I don't think THAT is going to happen anytime soon.

So it was originally bonded to the frame, methinks to remove the frame and glass unit and to strip the rubberwork, metalwork and glass, give them a good clean with a solvent to chemically clean them and use a suitable Dow-Corning bonding adhesive (they probably make the original bonding adhesive).

Bodges and "quick fixes" have a nasty habit of reminding you at the MOST inconvenient AND expensive time that you should have done the job properly in the first place.!
