    I will soon be covering my Light Steel Frame with 102mm&130mm PIR insulation. I am looking for something to bond the sheets together and fix them to the frame temporarily until the final fixing is completed by long self drilling screws. The purpose is to improve airtightness and help with construction.

    I have found Soudal Fix All Fills & Bonds from another thread but I am wondering if there is anything else I could use.

    Yes - it is (or like) 'bubble glue' and it's good because you can glue/foam the board edges as well as you go. The snag is, boards have to be held in place at least 20mins, unlike with contact adhesive.

    Got a link ? an02ew ( makes you sound like a star wars droid)
    I've used PUR glue in the past and carpet tile adhesive spray to fix the foil faces together , to bond the edges , low rate expanding foam ,
    If its just temporary , acrylic decorators caulks cheap and works on the foil sides , you could then foam and tape joins after final fixing
