They sell mirror adhesive adhesive in home centers. Silicone ahdesive would certainly work, but 'm not sure if silicone would be compatible with the reflecive backing on the glass. Maybe someone else knows?

Go to your local NAPA store and tell them what you want to do. They'll have just the product that will not discolor the backside of the mirror. BP

Many years ago I glued several mirrors to the bases using plain old epoxy resin. While I can't guarantee your results, the glass is still in the ones I did and I didn't notice any discoloration.

Glass or mirror shops will sell you a silicone adhesive for mirror mounting. I believe it is called "neutral cure" silicone. I have also seen the same product in building supply stores at cheaper prices, if you are lucky. Regular silicone adhesive is acidic and is not recommended. You will have to read what is on the cartridge. If it doesn't say "neutral cure", don't use it.

Windshield Urethane that is used to glue in windshilds is all that I use at our shop and have been using it for years works well.

When I worked in the Glass Shop we used either Silicone or Urethane, but that was in the late 1970's, when both the mirror backings and adhesive formulations were different (better) than they are today.
