tip overlays

What do you guys feel is the best glue for re-attaching tip overlays on vintage bows? I'm repairing a late 50's Sanders Swift.

Smooth on, it blends into limb and overlay so much easier than CA (superglue)

But rather than buy several $ worth of smooth on, a good hardware store epoxy would prob work, wait and see if someone has used it....
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I pay the same from Bingham.  I think they are smaller than 2 pint cans though.
