RR Classic Rearview Mirror Repair

There's a fixer specially made for that job though I can't remember what it's called. Got it from my local spares shop and it consisted of a small piece of thin grey coloured gauze, enough to do the job twice, with instructions to clean the glass etc. and just wet a small piece of the gauze with some superglue type stuff which was also in the kit. The gauze is impregnated with some sort of hardener/activator which, if you don't get your skates on, hardens the glue before you get the chance to stick the small mirror pad on. I could tell that I hadn't got enough fluid on as the patch was a bit dry in places which you could see once it was in place. That was about 5 years ago and it's never fell off since. If I had to do it again I would use more fluid and be a bit quicker about getting the job done.

Glassbond + UV (B) light is far more reliable.

What can be more reliable than..... 'it's not fallen off yet'? :-) shouldn't have opened my big mouth, watch it fall off in the morning.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys.
