Default body panel epoxy

i've heard of a few places that uses epoxy to bond two body panels together ex. lower quarter to your original quarter panel. does anyone know if this is a special epoxy or if it's your run of the mil super epoxy? i can't find any information on it and not to sure where to even look. thanks for the help.

only problem with 8115 is it requires a special automix gun to use it correctly... it does also come in a 2 part tube like a JB weld kinda thing... but the part number escapes me... but dont expect to get that kinda thing at autozone.. find a local body shop supply store and ask them (finishmaster, sherwin-williams, etc)... they'll most likely have what you're looking for
