    Keeping Console Edge Trim On

    Anyone have a good solution for keeping this trim on the free edge of the console fiberglass? It just slips over the fiberglass edge, but mine keeps falling off. I'm sure this is a common problem - what works?

    The rubber toughened CA looks promising. I just ordered some - will give it a try.
    Thanks for the suggestion.

    The rubber toughened CA worked well. It was easy to apply and the edge trim is still in place after 3 weeks. I'd say give it a try - thanks for the suggestion.
