Can anyone recommend an adhesive or something to stick the rubber windscreen seal back down with???

It makes a horrendous noise above 50mph!!mad

I've tried various strong contact adhesives and industrial silicon but it just will not stick!!

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Just as important as a good adhesive is to make sure you prepare the 2 surfaces properly or the best glue in the World won't stick. Try using some white spirit but obviously be careful it doesn't splash onto the paintwork.

Used Sikaflex on the windscreen seal on my Chim

No fluttering from the seal at 1.5 leptons, just felt like being in the cockpit of a Spitfire smokin
