What adhesive works good on the door gasket on 86 series tractors?

The door gasket started falling off recently. I need to clean off the several layers of old adhesive and apply new. I can't remember for  sure what I used before on other 86 series tractors. 

Seems like I used vinyl trim adhesive???

I use 3M 847 -- best stuff you gonna find 

can be used as a contact adhesive
so clean both surfaces well of any oils or dirt 
then smear a coat on each side -- your gloved finger works best  -- or wear the brown finger of success 
let dry until tacky to your finger -- only takes a few minutes

then press the parts together -- correct the first time -- this 847 has a really tight grip

I use sikaflex as ordinary silicone can cause rust

Yup , regular silicone releases acetic acid as part of the curing process
-- the gray and some of the black uses a different curing method 

Also could use Lexel clear if you dont have the 847 
get the Lexel at the hardware store

I'll check on the 3M 847 tomorrow when I go to town. If NAPA  don't have it I bet they can get it the next day.

I stopped by the local NAPA today.  He knew what I needed.  Said it would be here tomorrow, if I go to town tomorrow...
