It comes in a tube that is a LOT neater. Like toothpaste. The spray is for headliners and large objects.

Okay guys - so I bought the 3M stuff - actually read the directions - got spray glue all over my french manicure - finally got the stuff to stick......let me just say it wasn't a pretty sight!

It worked though - so that's all that matters!

Even if you use to much adhesive you can still get in through the other door and climb over the shifter....Norm

3M makes two colors of "Weatherstrip Adheasive" Goober green and black. (I like black, my car is black.)

Use a Q-Tip stick (without the cotton) to apply. Use that blue 3-M masking tape to hold in place overnight.

Option 2:

Use super glue, but if you make a mistake,(ie use too much, get a run, misplace the molding, ... etc.) they are gonna have to paint your whole door. $$ !!

Good luck.

Its called 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive. Try www.performanceproducts.com if you can?t find it in your local auto parts store. 3M also makes spray adhesives of varying strength.

Not to keep my sanity in place but the rubber moulding under the driver side door is hanging a bit. Guys, what's the best adhesive that I can use to glue/fit it back into the groove under the door?

Many thanks (SMILE)
