DB say: No no no! For reasons that I explained in my last post, I would not use Clement for track tubulars. I've seen a number of Clement-glued tubs that have rolled off with minimal pressure after the glue has cured rock hard. I've never used Mastik 1, but I've had great results with Conti, and (in the bad old days) Panaracer Cement.
