My vinyl trim channel has no lip

The vinyl trim insert over one of my rear exterior wall screw strips is loose.

Following advice elsewhere on this forum, I measured the insert and I was about to order a roll of the Camco product. While I was measuring the loose vinyl, I noticed that the channel that it fits in had no lip. There is literally no inside edge to tuck the trim under. My previous camper was a Jayco, and it had a lip to catch the trim. I believe the vinyl was glued into the channel on my Winnebago.

Is there a recommended adhesive for this, or am I misunderstanding how this works?

anyone?

Perhaps this is a dealer/manufacturer question.

Here is how I solved this problem.

I used "3M Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive, Yellow" from the local auto parts store.


Good news: It has held well for several weeks prior to and during a 400 mile trip. I also used it to glue down some rubber seals in my battery compartment access.


Bad news: I put a wee bit too much on and got some on my paint. Nothing seems to take it off.
