Default Cobra skin/rib bonding stuff

Anyone know what the stuff is that Cobra uses to bond the aluminum
ribs and skin with?

I am *in the design phase of a clamshell top and I would like to bond
the skin/ribs, with a few chicken rivets in strategic places.

Brad,
Check out this adhesive from West Systems.

Also, the loctite depend 330 mentioned in the earlier post about
trailer repair is good stuff. It is the adhesive used on the vortex
generators installed on our piper colt, and that stuff has been
holding tight for over 10 years.
