    Depends on how fast the customer will work , slow setting is fine but if a quick job is need then fast set is the option.

    Nice White flexi is the one, fast or slow.
    Any trav Iv fitted usually comes in one piece too.

    I would use an acrylic stone adhesive on a window sill both to set and join the pieces at the seams. Be sure it is UV stable or the sun will beat it up. I just cannot tell you what brands are available in the UK.
