[TR] rubber adhesive

In difficult spaces to hold the weather-stripping to a tighter bond, I have
used contact cement on the seal side as well as the contact side of the panel,
then before I make contact to weather strip I heat the strip with a hair dyer
to speed up the tackiness. It helps in those difficult tight areas. I use
lacquer thinner for clean-up.

  The 3M adhesive or just plain old weatherstrip seal usually works but I have
  encountered some seals that won't stay put w/o something much stronger (the
  TR4 boot seal comes to mind).  For that I used Gorilla Glue (or the Elmers
  equivalent).
