"A person who can't drill a straight and centered hole in wood for a recoil pad screw, probably shouldn't be playing with disc sanders or epoxy."
Good point, but the issue isn't about getting the hole perfect, but rather getting everything the first time without waiting for the glue to dry or anything else... It is faster and easier by quite a bit.
The other ways work great and the smiley is noted. Just talking about easy and right. And, thinking about it, there are lots of folks that should not be near a gun with a grinder that do install pads... and they will find my trick easier...

Any epoxy will work, just make sure you have enough open time to get the job done if using 10-minute... Pre-assemble everything once to make sure there will be no errors. Plain old Johnson's paste wax works fine, a shot of One-Shot works fine, too.
