I'm looking to glue the targa seal on a car. It is torn where the horizontal piece meets the vertical. Super glue doesn't cut it. Rubber cement....?

[/quote I think I've got some of this! I'll report back to its effectiveness. If no good I'll try the wetsuit glue! I have a spare seal to test this on. Thanks guys. |

In my shop we called the 3M super weatherstrip adhesive blck death. If you get it on the paint it will eat it. Good stuf but watch where you use it.
