Decals

Hi, On my van, I've got a few decals that have just started to lift on the corners,. I've tried some small pieces of heavy duty double sided tape cut to shape but these don't last very long, what do you guy's use?

 

Appreciate any help or advice.

Peter, the silver plastic type "Auto-trail" letters on the front of my Tracker luton have over the last 4 years decided to curl up their toes and lift off. I have tried several different glues and found the two part waterproof epoxy "called Araldite here"the most successful. Now the silver colour is wearing off the letters . The glue has done such a good job it will be extremely difficult to remove the letters. I suspect Jonathan's dab of superglue might be a better fix than the two part epoxy. I will soon need to replace the decal across the bonnet as it has faded and is crazing all over its surface. The ultraviolet along our east coast is very efficient at reducing the life of plastic & rubber type components eg wiper blades. cheers,
