Default bonding metal + plastic: what product?

the metal mesh on my zgtt custom valance has become loose. what's the best goo to use to re-bond the mesh to the plastic valance trim -- and where do i get it? (it can be messy, as i'm gonna slather it all over the inside of the valance trim and then press the mesh into it. but i'd prefer if it was black just in case it's visible from some angles.)

thanks!

Try J-B Weld epoxy meem... they work great and are darkish in color.

JB Weld should do the trick, but it's grey when it dries
