What are you guys using to glue the aluminum skin to the Styrofoam type insulation for wall repairs?

Ive been using liquid nails for the paneling to foam bond.

3m fastbond Contact Adhesive Neutral
I not only got this from my buddy the works for 3M but from the company that sells the replacement aluminum siding. The problem with liquid nails is it dries hard. The coach "moves" while driving. An adhesive that is rigid will likely break the bond & let go. I believe Winnebago actually used contact cement originally. Not to knock anyone but I did put a lot of research into it. When it was explained this way it made sense to me as well.
