Hello, does anyone have any idea how to get 120 micron mesh to stick to the lip of a tea light candle holder?

 

I've tried sanding the lip and using aquarium silicone. This doesn't seal all the way around and lifts up in different areas.

I've also tried elmers glue and it isn't strong enough to hold the mesh down.

 

I read on a forum where someone suggested gorilla glue 2-part epoxy, but wanted to ask here first, before trying any other glues.

Heat the mesh in an old frying pan, then press the plastic down on it until it fuses by melting. Super easy.

This guide explains it well.

The method in the doc is the same as the one ANTdrew was explaining about. This is the same also, just throwing it in just in case LOL https://docs.google....dit?usp=sharing
