Question Spoiler fixing glue advice wanted !!!

Have a OE ST170 rear spoiler to fit on a mk1 focus st170 which never had one originally, dont really want to drill any holes in my tailgate so is tiger seal the best adhesive for this job as its only light ?, in the past I have had a issue with tiger seal not holding, SO if theres something better out there let me know and any links would be great

Tiger seal doesnt seem to be quite as good, I put my carbon roof on my mini with it and 2yrs later it is lifting in the corners.
