Discuss Chasing sockets brick blown in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

i've used floor tile adhesive a few times. it sets like concrete.
My first choice every time ^^^^ If you get the rapid set it will be set hard inside a hour and you can drill and fix into it if so needed. Plasterboard adhesive works well also in a similar fashion. There's also an adhesive called "no more ply mega strength"
Mega Strength Adhesive for No More Ply - http://www.tilegiant.co.uk/mega-strength-adhesive-for-no-more-ply.html
Although its used mainly for a certain application it works really well for a quick fix solution as it sets in 5 minutes and sticks to pretty much anything. Which by the way you have to watch out for as it expands slightly when applied and sticks to everything and is very difficult to remove. each tube comes with disposable gloves because you cannot get it off your skin! (I've found out from experience)!
But because it comes in a tube you can keep it handy on your van. In fact its got me out of many a scrape. I once broke down in my van because the gear linkage plastic coupling fell apart. I used this glue to fix it and was back on my way in 15 mins.
