What should one use to "Glue" the ends when installing weatherstripping Mine were done last year and used the "Black 3M" stuff from Gbody.com and it fails to have a tight hold of the weatherstrip to the handle end of the door. Anyone have a better idea on what to use the 3M stuff seems to be "stretchy" and can't correct it.
 
There should be two screws that hold the weatherstripping down and the adhesive just helps with the bond. Do you have those installed? All of the weatherstripping manufacturers that I've bought from have always recommended the 3M 8008 super adhesive.

Yes there were a screw or push-on plastic snap at the latch end of the door. We used some 3M stuff in a tube "Black" it tends to rather flexible and stringy just did not stay in place sort of crept away after it was attached. Will look into the #8008 stuff can't do right now as I am in Wisconsin and the car is in Arizona will be going out for the winter on Dec 6 and take a look at the ends then. Thanks for the advise.
