Ask Dr. Dave

What type of adhesives would you recommend for bonding glass to steel that will be exposed from -20-100˚F in an outdoor environment?

Dr. Dave explains why this type of application can often be tricky, particularly due to the large differences in thermal expansion coefficients between the glass, the steel, and the adhesive.
