Input, please

The top dress panel came off when I dropped it.

The amp's been repaired. The panel, while it doesn't touch any pins, is conductive.

Gorilla glue it back on or not? I can't think of any reason for it to shift short of an earthquake.

Thanks, all.

I use it all the time on instruments where there is decorative trim. Often times its what the factory uses instead of glue because it can be removed if necessary
