Thanks, everyone! Roof is now glued on and setting up. One more hour to go before I can selectively release clamps, cleanup and re-clamp. Used about 2/3 of the 3M panel adhesive kit. Didn't know for sure how much was needed, so I bought an extra, which they let me return when I took back the applicator.

Noticed a few small spots where the adhesive must have oozed down slightly. It doesn't appear to be enough to compromise the seal, but I'll need to top them off after it hardens completely. Assuming this works really well, I'm already considering using panel adhesive to attach the hood riser when the time comes.
