I have now fixed the leaking skylights in my folding caravan. Not helped by the fact that they didn't use stainless screws and used silicon instead of a flexible filler. Now comes the hard part. I now need to stick the new plywood to the polystyrene on the ceiling. What I really need is a very good and quick contact adhesive so I don't need to prop it up to long. Has anybody any idea what I could use and where I can get hold of it?

Fast setting Polymer wood glue will grab in 5 minutes and be solid in 30 minutes, available from B&Q, Wicks etc.

For such as your job, you can also get slow setting which takes 20 minutes or so to grab but it's perhaps not so widely available.
