How do you secure flexible solar panels without drilling?

Can you use adhesive on solar panels?

I strongly urge you to avoid using any adhesive for solar panels. Keep in mind that flexible solar panels don't last long. You will probably need to replace them every couple of years. That will be a challenge with them glued in place. For rigid panels, the best adhesive would be M6 bolts.

It is essential to thoroughly clean the surface of both the solar panel and the mounting surface before applying any adhesive to ensure proper bonding.

What is the best adhesive for rigid panels?

For rigid panels, the best adhesive would be M6 bolts. These are rigid panels being mounted on aluminium brackets. I'll actually be replacing one of the factory panels and notice they only use adhesive. M6 bolts make sense for strength, my concern is they introduce an entry point for moisture.
