After ignoring the problem for far too long I'm going to fix the rubber trim on one of my cameras that has come loose. I'm concerned about harming the camera with the wrong type of glue or doing a botch job that I'll have to re-do in a month or two.

Its the rubber near the left thumb-hold (surrounding the m/c/s switch)

Anyone have any experience of this and what particular solvents they found suitable? I don't think regular superglue will do the job - I'm imagining a rubber sealant of some kind.

Googling has thrown up a lot of conflicting advice. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi deci

I would suggest a silicon adhesive.... I wouldn't use a solvent based adhesive :)
 
Thanks a million for the help guys! I'll give that a go - I also have a pair of boots that need glued as well!
