Is it for something in particular? When I was working full time as a signmaker I bought most of my adhesives from a specialist Company, I knew I could phone them up & get lots of help & they would have just the adhesive I needed to bond just about anything :lol: :lol:
Not the cheapest of routes but I always knew I had the right product & had no problem sleeping at night :lol: :lol:

When I was working in the industry, at Winchester, I had Loctite come in for a time to inform me about bonding. It was very informative. From that I believe you get what you pay for.

When I was learning about making signs I had some really good advice from a local signmaker. He told me about Lord Adhesives. I got some and I experimented with different materials. It is not cheap!! When I make signs and I need to bond something I use Lord Epoxy on the customer sign. It is as good as or better than Loctite.
