Strong vinyl adhesive ?

It's late here (23:30) but tomorrow I'll find out what I have for 3M weatherstrip adhesive.  I just used it to re-glue a few inches of Velcro onto my vinyl tonneau cover before heading to Lime Rock and it's holding like Iron.  I can tell you.....if you get it on your skin, it's a major PITA to get it off, so it must be pretty good stuff.  

Stay tuned.

Hey......could your boat top stitcher just stich the top bow sheathes to the top as mine are?   Would seem like an easy (inexpensive) job.

Oh!  And your 912e is the bomb - VERY nice car, Carl!

I had an 80's Chrysler convertible with a glass window that kept coming loose from the top. I tried many adhesives which always came loose. The E-6000 was the only adhesive that I found that held. 

OK, Carl.....The stuf I used is 3M 08008 Black Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive

Available at NAPA, but when I bought mine they had to find it in a NAPA store out in East Zamboogie or something.  Took a day to get it to a local store.

3M also has a quart can of general purpose adhesive release agent.  Comes in pretty handy to get the stuff OFF when you want to.

Gordon,

Yea, I thought of having the sheaths stitched in but unless the exposed stitching is super straight without wiggles and hesitations it would look like crap!...and handling that expanse and vinyl thickness is a clumsy PITA especially under a 'running foot' commercial machine.

And thanks for the compliment on my pumpkin orange 912...but  LennyC has the makings of a legitimate blood pumping BOMB tucked into the corner of his garage....a dusty 912, and in the corner, bolted up to an engine stand, is a 6cyl Suby just biding its time!!!

I hope Lenny invites me over for some wrenching experience when he gets around to it...I love watching people who know what the hell they're doing!
