Default Glue for trim bits?

The trim is coming off the driver’s door on my Golf. It's held on with some sort of black glue type stuff.

What do people use to glue trim bits and pieces back onto their cars, once removed?

I’ve tried double sided tape and it’s not worked.

Thanks
John

NO this is sticky but not used to stick trim, only used for sound deadning ie door skins to stiffners etc to stop booms and rattles

U need contact adhesive imo

HALSTEAD GLUE SPRAY, ie contact adhesive, used to use it to stick CARPET upside down on horse boxes etc, so will stick the trim no probs, and does not stain or anything either.
