    I'd say the stuff you got was for rejoining broken lines. I spent a bit of time looking for this stuff 2 years ago. I eventually got it from America. Very similar to the permatex stuff posted above but with a little bottle of activator stuff with it. I made up a tab from 1mm sheet metal and repaired the back window of the missus's Yaris. It's still working perfectly now.

    I was concentrating on the "paste" side of things, rather than the "tab". Sorry for any confusion, OP!
