Default glass runners

just wondering what people use to stick glass runners to the viv. the ones i'm using are 7ft long if that makes much difference?

I use no more nails, drys in minutes and isn't as messy as silicone.

I also use no-nails, but if you think you may want to remove them at some point in the future then maybe use hot glue.
Whatever you use, I find it's best to score across the back of the runners loads of times with the point of a stanley knife to give the adhesive a better grip.

I think some people on here use headless nails to fix runners, but never tried them myself.
