I started using Elmer's Pro-Bond polyurethane glue in vacuum-bag wing skinning experiments last year, and my not-very-scientific conclusions are that the results are comparable to what I achieved with epoxy, so long as I worked fast and got the skins on the cores and everything in the bag

Is there an optimum spoiler size - say percent of chord? Working on a low aspect ratio 2M with a root chord of 15.375. Center panel (where the spoiler will be) is flat and 20.5 span. I'm not sure what you mean by optimum. The bigger the spoiler and the farther forward it is, the more sink
