Help with door leather ..unglued

[MERIJONS97LSC]

Anyone know of a good glue? The door leather at the top, by the window, became unglued. It has a foam padding so superglue is not going to work,the foam is too pores.

You can try Shoe Glue... it works on almost anything....

Also Gorilla Glue has been known to work pretty good but not sure how it will work on the foam. Might eat it up....

I had the same problem and I used clear silicone and put some weight on it. When it drys it holds like new.

3M Emblem & Trim Adhesive worked for me. You don't have to hold the parts together that long either.

That was happening with my 97, and any of those adhesives will work. It will work best however if you take the panel off and glue it out of the car.

I used super glue on mine about a year ago and it still looks like new... I know... it surprised me as well.

I've had excellent results with spray tack...

Thanks guys for your replies!..I tried different types of glue, They ether dried to fast or they required the glue to set up on both pieces, making it hard to slide in position. So I ended up using some glue I had for PVC pipe....It worked great, spreads on EZ and holds great!

Sorry for a late reply but........
Weldwood contact cement and some lighter fluid to clean up any excess.
Work from the center and out to ends. Try not to stretch or you'll get wrinkles.
