    Question Adhesive for glass blocks?

    I have put up a two column glass wall as part of a walk in shower enclosure using the Solaris Quicktech system (from B&Q). Despite the box saying there is enough adhesive for more bricks than I have used, I have run out. I now cannot find any supplier for the Solaris adhesive and I don't want to fork out another fifty quid for a complete kit.

    I bought some 'adhesive' from an on line supplier but on arrival it appears to be sealant rather than adhesive and I am not sure it is going to be suitable for actually sticking the blocks to the plastic spacers. Anyone got any ideas where I can get the Solaris adhesive or what I coudl use as a substitute?

    oh I think we are talking at x purposes here, I should have been more precise. I am after the stuff in tubes like no more nails etc which is supplied with the Solaris Quicktech system. 2 tubes do about 16 bricks. Its quick & no mess. Not sue you could use the mortar with the plastic spacer things I already have.
