    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

What glue - for decal on side panel

Rugged restoring my GS550E as I go. No garage so bit by bit.

Q) I had to get a new side panel or one that was 3d printed. I bought stick on decals (flexible papery) and one has decided to come off. My fault through rushed spraying and fixing few years ago.

What glue can I use after cleaning up area ?

Side panel 3 base coats . Clear coat and decal to go on. (It was a stock on decal not one I'm used to that you slide about with water ....)

What glue still needed. Will do 2 coast clear first before stick on.
(Then one thin layer clear on top)
Then polish

Maybe take what you have to a local graphics shop and have one made with fresh adhesive. Dont know the process but they may be able to apply new adhesive to yours.
