Conduit to plastic shed? what adhesive, Silicone or Liquid Nails?

Question

I'm trying to run conduit along the outside of a plastic shed. What adhesive should I use to make the plastic conduit stick to the plastic shed?

I've tried silicone but doesn't seem to be holding the conduit in plastic.

I'm in Baltimore, weather is approximately 60 degrees if that helps.

Thanks for any input.

If the shed is made of pvc plastic and so is the conduit, then I would use pvc glue. 60 % is still a little cold so use the cold weather formula available at any hardware store or home improvement outlet.
Also the primer actully softens up the plastic and they melt together a little with the glue so make sure to prime both the pipe and the shed. Then you may have to use duct tape to hold it for an hour or two until it drys.

Hope this helps.

Why glue the conduit to the shed? Just use conduit anchors screwd into the shed to hold the conduit. You can use the Silicone to fill the drill holes to prevent any moisture seepage.
