Type of glue for rubber surround on carbon front wings

Super glue is the instant solution. But if you ever want to remove the trim intact then there may be a problem & super glue will leave a nasty, possibly unremovable reminder on the carbon/lacquered surface.

A good contact adhesive such as Bostik (aka 'gorilla snot') is sufficient as long as the edge & trim is cleaned & degreased properly. Also on removing the trim the contact adhesive can be removed with White Spirit & not leave a trace.

The best way to apply is with a small brush or baby bud. Definitely required for getting into the contact surfaces of the trim.

I didn't want to use SuperGlue on mine as I felt it was too permanent and didn't want it to damage the carbon cycle wings. I took a recommendation from Chris Collins build blog and used Zap Goo - available from ebay and Amazon. I've also used it on one or two other areas during my recent build.
