Can anyone recommend some high temp glue to glue back the seal on our oven? I know its a bit off topic but I am sure many of you know some products that could help. That staff at the local bunnings (if you can find them) are all 15 and too busy chatting each other up to be of any help.
Thanks in advance.

You need to be carefull with silocon as it gives off nasty fumes ect during the curing process, but yes it works
well up to 250 deg c (automotive type)

Some silicone sealants also release formaldehyde when they get hot.
Formaldehyde is very bad for you and I think it makes the biscuits taste funny too.

Not sure of the right answer, but superglues, contact adhesive, and normal silicon won't stand the heat, and all have some toxic fumes.
My suggestion is Sikaflex adhesive, as it is flexible, adheres strongly to anything, and is not toxic. Its a polyurethane adhesive.

And forgot to add, is there any chance you can reattach it with some self-tappers?

I've used Silastic on exhausts too but only ever as a sealant - not as an adhesive. I reckon Sikaflex would be the better adhesive though.

If using black Sikaflex use surgical gloves & clean up with Methalelthalkeytone(MEK)

RTV-159 or RTV-102 even rtv-106, will do the job, these are HIGH TEMP silicones, we use then on the turbine engines, they stick like you know what to a blanket on a clean surface, very hard to remove once set, all have an acetic cure (gives off the vinegar small). made by dow corning.
only problem is they are red in colour.
get from industrial suppliers, blackwoods etc..
Oh and they have a multitude of applications for the fourby ;-)

I use a Dow Corning one called 3145 , I am sure its really high temp ( 1200 C or F I cant remember), its
grey in colour but doesnt have the bad vinegar ( acetic acid ) smell. Its also called adhesive / sealant so sticks very
well.
