This was a small bottle of craft glue a good 15 yo I add an inch of water to and shook like a rattle gun paint can to get a wee bit of glue dissolved into the water. Mowing the grass, otherwise staying safe and out of sight here at the house. The Elmers is probably at CVS. This looks like heck but its sticking well after about 3 turns of the brim laydown. The initial clear the nozzle by running up and back on the left edge of the plate also stuck to clean glass, very close to as well as it stuck to the magnetic sign mat it came with. From that, I think clean glass is all it needs. OOTB and plastic wrap, it acted like it was waxed & water just pooled on it. Like a freshly waxed car. This part is only about 4 hours, its other mating half is about 8 or 9 cuz its taller and I need 3 of each yet.
