Shower door handle

Purchased a used Montana last year (2014; 295RKD). The shower has a sliding 3-panel door. The metal handle was loose so re-glued it with a marine grade epoxy from the local hardware store. (The handle glues directly to the glass). Unfortunately, the handle fell off again. There is some glue remaining on the door which needs to be cleaned off. Wondering if anyone has recommendation for a solvent and a reliable marine-grade glue.

Don't know what your handles look like, but you could try some automotive grade 3M double sided tape. It is used to attach handles on Koehler shower doors and is used to attach car badges to the body. Scrape the glass with a straight razor blade and clean it real good with denatured alcohol.

Ours came loose a while back, from not securing the latch fully, and the handle came off. Scraped the adhesive off the handle and the glass, squeezed some silicone caulking into the groove that the glass is inserted into, and the handle hasn't come off since.
