Can anyone help.

I need to glue granite that I just engraved outside to an aluminum surface.

Do you guys know what I can use?

Thx

Depending on the size and location (not too big and not overhead), I'd use VHB tape with silicone. The VHB tape will hold it while the silicone dries.

I use Tek 7(loading up to 28kg/cm2), for all glueing jobs

GE Silicone Aquarimum Adh. works very well.. Particularly if it's outside, and there will be a expansion differential. Any non flex adh. will eventually cause something to give and fracture, and it probably won't be the aluminum.

+1 for silicone, just plain old hardware store tub sealer. I used it for granite to lexan: been outdoors five years now, not going anywhere.
