Not great with this stuff… what is the best adhesive to use for the [cyclotron](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/cyclotron) lenses and the [power cell](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/power-cell) lense? Hot glue won’t do, I’m afraid gorilla glue will get messy and separate the lense too much and not sure if superglue is the best… thank you for your help!!! ---

I always used hot glue… Otherwise id just use some cheap superglue (cyanoacrylate) ---

I use hot glue initially in a just a couple of spots to keep the lenses in place. Then I use epoxy putty all around the lenses to secure them permanently. If you use just hot glue and leave your pack in a hot car, the glue can soften and lose it’s adhesiveness. ---

I also prefer to use hot glue to mount the lenses, reflectors, and bulbs. It’s much easier to tear apart if you ever had to replace a broken or defective part. The trick to remember is that a little goes a long way, don’t get trigger happy and make sure your contact area is slightly scuffed and clean (use isopropyl and a cotton ball, paper towel or clean cloth) before adhering anything.
