What composite material do you use to cement in your porcelain veneers?

I have use many different composite luting composites to bond my veneers. Currently I am using Mojo by Generic Pentron. I find it easy to use since it has a relatively low viscosity that makes it easier to seat my veneers.

In my mind a relatively low viscosity for my luting cement is important, because sometimes when using a high viscosity luting cement it can be difficult to tell when my all porcelain bonded restoration is fully seated.

Fully seating veneers is highly desirable, since it makes for a smaller amount of exposed bonding material at the margins of restorations. Exposed luting composite can over time erode and pick up unsightly stains.
