Hi could someone please tell me the best way to stick this down. I've bought a car and a bit of the trim has popped up. The man I bought it off said that he had stuck it down several times with something he got for the job but it kept popping up after a while. Whatever he used was black and lumpy looking so I would probably have to remove the remains of that as well. Thanks Sue

Anything exterior we use Urethane at work, it takes a bit of time to set but once its set that's it. It can be a little messy and doesn't come off once set so make sure you wipe any excess off before it sets.
Interior, we usually use Double sided tape or Q-Bond/Loctite Super Glue. All should be able to be purchased from Supercheap, Repco etc

OP,there's a tape you can buy which is like a double sided thin foam.peel one side stick it to the back side of the trim then trim off excess,when done peel off the protective film and stick'er down. Probably need to clean off the old adhesive first though.

Thats the model with the heated rear window isn't it, to keep your hands warm when you push it home on a cold night!
