Just wanted to say hello. I was looking for info and found this site. Maybe I can learn some things from you people. I wanted to know what type of glue I should use to mount stained glass pieces to glass or plexiglass that will be grouted and back lit in a shadow box. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi probchld1953!!! While I havent done a gog before I have read many threads from people who do them alot...they always use mac glue. They also always talk about grout bleed and how to prevent it. To prevent it they say to make sure you butter the piece (not the glass) and make sure the edges of the piece get the glue so the grout will not seep under it if you decide to grout.

Hope that helps!!!!
