Hello,

The bumper strip on one of my car doors has lost its adhesive
and won't stick any more. What do repair shops use to attach
them? The strip itself is flexible rubber with a flat back.
The grove in the door for the strip has a few holes near each
end, but the strip has nothing matching the holes. The entire
inside of the bumper strip is rather sticky and apparently was
just stuck on the door. I'd like to clean up the strip and
apply some new adhesive to fix it. I've just not found
anything suitable in the local auto parts store.

Thank you in advance,

David



All decent suggestions. However, the best way is to go to an automotive
paint store and get some double sided tape. It is a black, really thin
tape made just for your type of trim. All automotive paint stores will
have the proper stuff for sticking trim back on to vehicles that have
been painted. Even though yours hasn't been painted, you are in a
similar situation.
