Best glue to use to fix this rubber seal?

[Steve O]

Hi. Just noticed this rubber in front of the pop top is starting to come loose.

many ideas of best glue to repair please?

UHU POR used as a contact adhesive - thin film, let it dry, push it into place. Get it right first time though!
Must be POR, UHU make many types of glue. Its safe on paintwork unlike the old Toluene-based Evo-Snot.

Thanks. Pull off the old adhesive that’s hanging or glue that first and then second fix to van?

Bicycle puncture repair kits usually have contact rubber adhesive

Looks perished to me, if you repair it may simply rip again. Loctite 406 is best for rubber, used for splicing O rings / seals etc, pretty much Superglue.

...but cyanoacrylate isnt waterproof... ....and Loctite specify water contact as either 'none' or 'occasional'

It’s always worked for me and is supplied in Loctite O ring splicing kits.
I’ve used it to seal the end of 6mm nylon cord splice which is deployed in sea for 9 months at a time, no issues
