glueing foam to Systainer

[Marven]

This question has probably been asked and answered but I cant find the answer by search function.

The foam on the lid of my TS55 has come off.  Whats the best way to fasten it back on?

Double-sided tape works.

A hot glue gun would probably also do the trick.

I've used the 3M Super 78 multipurpose Adhesive spray.  Also works great to bond foam together....

Edited to correct as "Super 78"...

They actually make a Super 78 which is specific for polystyrene. Super 77 degrades it.

Thanks for the link.  I've kept a can of the Super 77 around for years.  Comes in real handy at times when nothing else will work, but the only drawback is it's real messy and hard to clean up.  I'll have to look at getting some of the Super 78 now for plastics.

I used a blob of white silicone that was lying around at work. After 2 months or more it is still stuck to the lid.  [big grin]
