Default Clear epoxy?

Is there a clear epoxy that will bond glass (crystal) to brass. The
glass door knob handle came off of the brass seat.

Yes there is. I can't tell you the name though. Several years ago I was
having an annual chore of reattaching the rear view mirror to the
windshield. This was using the stuff that the auto supply places sold.

Somewhere I came across a clear epoxy that has worked now for over 6 or
seven years. I think it was from an auto supply store but I was away from
home and don't even remember the store name.

At any rate this is to tell you to keep looking. I know the stuff exists.

Use Loctite Clear Epoxy #312 and Loctite Primer 3736. These two items
can be bought as a kit from CR Lawrence under their part number 3346.

If you'd use rear view mirror cement, it would stay on permanently.
Wal-Mart, $3.00, done.

CYANOACRYLATE do a search on this, not an epoxy, not a glue..some call it
superglue but if the objects are clean, and need to be bonded it will
work...

if the joint is subject to shear impacts,then cyanoacrylates are not as
good as epoxy. A doorknob may get such shear forces.
