The monster-in-law got a present of 3 letters (ONE) to stick onto the front of her house and i have been given charge of putting them on. They are 6 inches high each and made from flat cut stainless steel with no fixings whatsoever, what do you think is the best option for putting them on. NO DRILLING was muttered by aforementioned creature.

Has anyone done this with satisfactory long-term results? My plan was to rough up the back of them with 60 grit and stick them on with aradite or some epoxy based 2 part? Any better ideas?

Thanks

I would use silcone selant, it both sticks well to brick & smoth surfaces.
Araldite I think will be to brittle.
 
i would definatly go for silicon as its known not to react with stainless is flexable clear wont show to much and easy to remove the excess

chemical anchor resin will do it if you roughen up the back of the stainless
 
I would go for silicone and a hot melt glue gun to hold it whilst the silicone cures.
