I believe you want to use a Urea type glue. It is a powder you mix into an adhesive. Allows strength but good flexibility. But I am not sure. If you will use the link to the left and go to the Golden Witch web site, they will have exactly what you need.

The glue you are after is URAC 185 or its equivalent. Goldenwitch has an equivalent.
