    What is the correct adhesive to use here and should I clean the edging beforehand (and with what)?

    Thanks,

    Tommy

    Contact adhesive. Probably don't need to clean it unless there is obvious contamination from oil/grease.

    Edging is often ironed on. Try holding an iron on the section that's become unstuck for a few seconds and see if that softens the remaining glue enough to restick.

    And cover the lipping with a sheet of newspaper first or the iron can leave a mark on it.

    Something like this might be more appropriate?

    Obviously you'll need to cut it to size.

    Wake me up when it's all over.
