I come across Speedsters, that have the seat back carpet pulling away from the seat . 3M or other contact adhesive will not hold to the finished vinyl surface ( it tends to roll) for very long . I did fine this Vinyl Cement that works great called : HH -66, in a 4 oz. cans . Do wear a mask using this stuff . Can be found on eBay for under $20 shipped. https://www.ebay.com/itm/HH-66..._CLK%7Cclp%3A2334524

I wonder if it would stick the 3/8" thick rubber/foam sound deadener to the inside of my doors? Last time I looked in there (years ago, cuz how often do you have your doors apart?) it looked like "tumble-down city" because the 3-M super-duper stuff for upholstery let go of the inside of the door. I was thinking of using something like "Liquid Nails" or that Loctite super-bonder on it. Too hot out there right now to even think about doing this...
BTW: It pops up on the Walmart website for $10 bucks + shipping.
Gordon this is a small can with a brush as part of the cap, the glue is good stuff. For what you want to do I use 3M Super 90 adhesive $14 a can at Lowes in the paint dept. ( Tall green can ) BTW I usually just use a square piece of indoor outdoor carpet on the doors...Makes a good "thud".

Gordon-3M Spray Super 77. Clean the surfaces, spray both sides. Let it set up to "tacky," stick it back on. Should never comes off again.
That's exactly it. The patience part of the equation, waiting long enough for the glue to get to the perfect state of "tack".
I have the cast aluminum totally aftermarket "Porsche" bolt-on valve covers. They don't have any retaining tabs for gaskets, so you need to glue them on. Contact cement is the way, you just need to wait ten minutes.
I usually set a timer.
Patience has never been my strong point. 
You do notice that as you get older
