Is this stuff any good for attaching wires to windows?

After reading various threads about attaching aerial wires to windows, I just wondered if anyone had used this instead of solder?

Doubt it Jeff. Reason been this is a conductive paint sort of products. Not really for bonding.

Maplins used to sell a metal expoxy which was good for this stuff but dont know if they still do mind.

There is always the chance the connectors could fracture and leave a poor connection.

Has your rear window deffo got the elements in the glass as well as some later cars didnt have them or had smaller ones or something silly like that.

Thats why I tend to get early cars as everything is plug and play on them.

This stuff will work. Expensive but top quality.

I used it to bond wires onto a electroluminescent sheet.
