Glue for waistline trim

Post by johnthebass »

Hi folks I think that last winter there must have been some water ingress behind the waistline trim as it's starting to peel off. Does anybody know of the correct glue to re-fit this?

Best thing I've found is windscreen adhesive, that way when you trim it the end is naturally black as well.

I was recommended Everbuild Stixall, available in black or clear. Looking at the technical spec it would seem to be ideal.

I have the trim strip ready to put on, I just haven't got around to it yet so I can't give a personal recommendation yet.

It's not that I can't do it, it's just that I don't know how.
