Looking for a good adhesive for exterior plastic trim.
Our Toyota Matrix has some loose plastic trim. I can't afford to have it professionally repaired and removal leaves some large ugly holes. So, for now, I'm thinking industrial strength glue.

Any brand preferences?

1. This is what I use
http://www.eclecticproducts.com/ag_adhesives.htm

I've always had good luck with Goop, I had to use quite a bit of it to fix my drivers side mirror, rubber stripping around my driver's side window, and a good portion of trim on the side of my van...I put it on about a year ago, and its still holding strong.

2. Thanks.
I was thinking of something like this or liquid nails. Going to the store tomorrow if I get time.

3. I'm not sure how good liquid nails is...
I've only used liquid nails for interior paneling, and wood trim, I'm not sure liquid nails makes an automotive adhesive...
