Default What's the best epoxy to use?

I recently installed new fenders on my f250 and I just painted it last month with plasti-dip. I was going to put the f250 badges back on the fenders and I was wondering what the best epoxy or adhesive would work the best?

I use a gasket material called "The Right Stuff", it works pretty good, used it to glue mirrors and trim back on without issue.

That would work on some stuff, if you ever intend on using a pressure washer, your badge will likley get blown off .. I love "The Right Stuff" .. it is the right stuff in most cases..

True Value hard ware does have it, or can get it .... Even 2 Ton will hold for a long time if peeped right ... I would scuff with 40grit only where needed .. It will stick
