      Good. Just remember. Identifie what your window is made of. Mine is polyplastic. If you're going to use epoxy then make sure you have a reasonable curing time. So the job is cold environment. This slows down hardening. I've had great success with liquid polyplastic glue used in the modelling hobby industry. Humbrol precision poly cement.

      First I tried purpose glue called "bond right". It worked but hardened very quick so you'll need to do it in a very cold environment if you use that. I have much better success with this. "Humbrol precision poly cement". It's runny so you don't need a lot and gives you 5 minutes to put your clamps on. Check your window. If there's only one side gone this will fix it without separating the window

    What was the two part adhesive you used to stick the two bits back together

      an epoxy resin type glue called bondrite, but be super planned and quick,, it dries in minutes,, on my polyplastic window I had better success with humbrol liquid poly cement, sand off all the old glue first though

    Can I ask why you didn't repair the section that had delaminated rather than opening up the whole window? Would a small repair not work?

      When a caravan window starts to delaminate, it's only a matter of time before the rest goes. Best to take the window out and do it properly, then you'll only have to do it once. I recommend a company called Bondrite. Either buy WC105 (a one-part adhesive, but the printed pattern on the window will likely run) or S1227 (two-part, but printed pattern won't run). I went for the latter.
