Some while ago, I used some no-more-nails type stuff to attach a metal
(chromed) soap dish thing to the ceramic-tiled splashback behind the
handbasin.
screws don't guarantee to hit anything solid.
Not really practical for the job your doing, but a can of Polycell expanding
foam must the stickiest substance I've ever come across. I've stuck
windowsills to brickwork, doorframes to walls etc. Also sticks to fingers
pretty good. Bob
I agree - I've used the stuff in all manner of applications after
noting how infernally sticky it is. I glued a fibreglass bumper on a
car with the stuff after the mounts rotted off. It's still on, several
years later.
You can buy a low expansion version of the foam - and I'd recommend a
trial run with a couple of bits of wood to see exactly how much you'd
need before it starts to ooze out of the joint.
