Default ANOTHER GLUE QUESTION

I am going to build another 5 gallon gas can. My can is about three years old and getting very dirty.
I found a very good plastic can at tractor supply, much better than the Walt mart type. But I want to glue the radio shack project box on the plastic can. The only thing I can think off is 3M 5200, marine glue. JB weld is too brittle. Got any ideas. I cannot find 5200 in town. I was thinking about taking it up the car windshield place and have the installer use some of the heated poly whatever stuff they use around car windshields. Thanks TMG

Try some gorilla glue on the can to see how well it sticks. I have had great luck with the expanding glue on plastics and fiberglass.
