hi team. 

ive got to stick the screens back into the crown sedan and I'm not sure what is the best porduct to use. 

I've used a curing urithane type product in the past and it didn't work to well. 

the only "factory" one I've seen seemed to have a bead of sealant that almost looked like a double sided tape type senario. 

anywho,  anyone got experience glueing these old screens in?

Sikaflex urethane is what a lot of manufacturers use, from what I've been told. Have used this and a similar Wurth product installing glass and thick polycarb windows on machinery. It's super tacky to use, run a decent bead and clamp it down. Best to let it sit overnight to cure over.

I swear by Sikaflex urethane, but you need to use the complimentary clear primer/activator to prepare the glass and aperture to avoid any bonding issues. (3min flash off time) If you've got fresh paint on the aperture, then give the bonding area a quick scuff with scotch pad and use the ska black primer (10min cure time).

If you have a yarn to a local Smith and Smith they might let you buy a tube and have a nearly empty activator and primer for cheap/free.
