Hello. Opel Astra 92r. The door seals broke off (black silicone from the plastic on the body). What is best to stick them - I mean the type of glue.
These seals are mean because nothing is sticking to them. I tried automotive double-sided tape temporarily, but it doesn't work.
Maybe you have some proven glue for such operations.

In "Sam repair" to Vectra A, they write that these gaskets stick when heated strongly. How much truth in this - I do not know. I myself struggle with peeling strips in Vectra.

Double-sided tape can also be used for strips and gaskets. Most of them are waterproof. You can buy chemical or automotive products of various widths. And the simplicity of use ... Some time ago I stuck the letters on the back of the car flap and so far also sticks like a devil mother-in-law.

Hello, I use a sealant such as for the installation of windshields. Lubricate, press, wait [preferably for the night] and it's ready and it holds like a "mayor's dog," Regards

Thanks for the answers.
Trying with this glazing compound somehow convinces me - but where to buy it - from "glaziers"?
I will save the Sikaflex for later.
As for the tape, I wrote it - it does not work.
I think this gasket is made of silicone and doesn't stick to anything.

Gentlemen, what if the seal seems to be ... waves?

In my car, the doors were replaced once, and the slats were "stuck" from the old ones and now you can see it coming off.

Is it possible to somehow "straighten" these slats?

You have to "take it off", clean it and "stick" it again! Greetings!

Gentlemen, you think that sikaflex is definitely a good idea for a gasket in a car. I have a strange thing - the seal between the windshield and the roof is sticking out.

Sikaflex dries slowly, and if you dress your hands, you will not wash it.
As for the Astra F, the gasket is originally not glued, but pressed in, as it probably sticks out under it full of muck. Take it out, rinse everything well, and put it back in.

For me it is a Peugeot 206 car. I pressed it many times and it still sticks out after driving a few kilometers, and at higher speed you can almost hear a whistle. So you have to stick. But will sikaflex be the best solution? It can dry for a long time, hands are also unimportant. The most important thing is that it should last for several years.

It is not to be glued, it is to be as Ociz wrote. That she is almost or even of legal age, it is so. It drags with the glass, sticks like under-dried silicone. From the side windows we got to the windshield, we even hooked the Peugeot 206. To the windows, the beginning was from the door seals ...

Topic summary

The discussion centers around the best adhesive options for fixing the door seals of a 1992 Opel Astra F. Users recommend using Sikaflex, a strong adhesive that bonds well to rubber and metal, although it dries slowly. Alternatives mentioned include automotive double-sided tape, which has proven ineffective for some, and windshield sealant, which requires pressing and waiting for it to cure. There are also suggestions to clean and reapply the seals if they appear warped or detached. Concerns about the longevity and effectiveness of these adhesives are raised, particularly regarding their application in automotive environments.
