i agree with Bill re adhesives - I have used the clear form of silicone
bathroom sealant quite sucessfully for sticking different materials - after
all, that's what it's designed to do

Good question. I am dealing with a similar adhesive problem. My suggestion
is to use a glue which stays pliable. Examples would be Mirror Mastic (which
holds glass to a variety of substrates, all with different thermal expansion
coefficients), polyurethane glue, or "goop", a silicon bonds-everything type
glue. Let me know what you finally come up with.
