Sealant Advice
Can anyone recommend a sealant or other type of adhesive that I can use to
fix the secondary glass panel back onto the door of an electric cooker. Obviously the high temperatures are the main consideration. Thanks in advance Paul |

There is a metal frame that it sits in (part of the door) but it needs to be fixed to this frame. |

If the sealant is just that, 'cos the frame keeps the glass in, use silicone sealant (make sure it's really silicone! I would use the neutral-cure stuff) - it will resist up to 260C for short periods, more than most ovens go to. You can get special "high temperature" silicones, but there's not a lot of difference, and they tend to have disadvantages (such as "plumba" only being available in bright red). You can always test a bit, in yours, or someone else's, oven.... smear some onto a coin or something, let it "go off", and bake it. |
