Adhesive to fix mug (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gum

'adhesive' is the definition.
(gum is a kind of adhesive)

'fix mug' is the wordplay.
'fix' indicates anagramming the letters.
'mug' is an anagram of 'GUM'.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for gum that I've seen before include "Glue; jelly-like sweet" , "seal" , "A chopper base" , "To stick with adhesive" , "Chewed sweet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
