I ended up using vhb on the skins for the entire camper. The aluminum I bought was coated white on both sides and the sikaflex would not stick. I had the back skinned and after 24 hours it pulled right off. I had to clean it up and use the 3m tape. Sikaflex work great for the bare metal to metal adhesion on the boxes though.
