Default epoxy for masonry use

I am adding a few masonry blocks to the top exterior wall corners of my
home. They will be setting directly on top of existing masonry block
construction..probably 2 or 3 each way at the corner for a
Spanish/territorial style affect. The city inspector says I should take
about a 24" piece of rebar at each corner and drill into the existing block
base...epoxy the rebar into the corner section...and add the two short
'steps' of new block over/around the rebar corner anchor.

What he didn't say was what type of epoxy to use...HB and Lowes only have
these little ...looks like one shot...tubes ?

Anyone know what type of epoxy...?...and can I buy it in like a quart or
gallon size set up rather than 3 or 4 dozen of these little 'applicator
tubes'

Thanks, Tim R


Look in the masonry aisle; not the paint/adhesive.
