I got my interior weight set for my new Foundation Centurion today. The weight set didn't come with any adhesive. What are people using for a permanent, but removable in a pinch installation adhesive?

Thanks!

I was hoping for a bit of specificity when it comes to which silicone adhesive would work best as it appears to come in a lot of variants and I really dont want to mess up my fancy new Foundation stock.
 
I was hoping to not need interior weights at all, and I bought one of the heaviest arca rails I could find to try to make it happen:


I ended up learning what I think several people already know, that the Foundation stocks are very tail heavy. So even with a somewhat beefy barrel profile and that extra heavy rail, I still needed internal weights to get the balance where I wanted it. At the end of the day I went with these weights for a variety of reasons (could be purchased individually, hex shape, o-ring, tapped).

I thought the O-Ring was supposed to be enough to hold them in so that you don't need any extra adhesive
