Looking to add solar charging to my trailer by using flexible solar panels.
Would rather not drill through the Aluminum top.
Any experience with adhesives to use ?

I have this very setup, and I used the VHB tape, but I just could not trust it so I also attached it with screws as well (belt and braces as the english say). I am a "firm" believer in adhesives, but it just seemed that if the leading edge got loose it would have a lot of peel and lift generated to help remove it, or even just enough to fold it back on itself and damage the panel. I made small mounting "washers" that fit in the grommets of the flex panel and sealed them with rtv when I bolted everything together. I was going to put two much bigger holes in for the wires to the panel, so what the hey...

Anyway it works great, no leaks, and the "trailer battery" is always full and ready to charge the glider batteries that cant come out (ASH 31)
