Roof Trim

The roof trim on the SC decided to lift this morning.

Thankfully I saw it out of the corner of the sunroof so took the last couple of miles very easily to prevent it from becoming completely detached.

I believe you can only buy these as part of the entire gutter assembly and in primer so I'm going to have an attempt at sticking this one back down before I replace the whole lot.

What's the best type of glue to use for it? Has anybody else stuck it back down with successful results?

Thanks Thumbs Up

45 views no responses. can only assume it's not a common issue. In the absence of an expert opinion I recall buying some adhesive off LR when I added wheel arch protectors to an old Disco. It came in a gun style tube similar to bathroom sealant guns and was like black tar.

It would hold the Town Hall to the moon!!!

Worth asking LR direct if nobody else has any info.

I popped in to see the local coachworks guy who is only a couple of miles from us and he suggested using Evo Stik Impact so I've ordered a tube for £3 of eBay.

Will see what happens when it arrives.

Tiger seal or Sikaflex would do the job better, a more permanent job though if you are thinking of replacing later.

Sikaflex, being a marine product is unbelievably good but also very messy and when it's stuck, It's STUCK forever! Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

I used Tiger Seal to stick a Audi TT slotted vent (helping my intercooler), to my offside inner w/arch liner cutout on my Octy mk1 vrs.
