Re: center cap emblem glue?

Do you need any new center caps? I have one in EXCELLENT condition. I just cleaned it off today, and looks like new. Not scratches on the emblem or anything. As for the glue problem I was not aware that the center caps used any glue.

Re: center cap emblem glue?

On the IROC caps I use the yellow trim cement. Really holds and doesn't damage the plastic.

Re: center cap emblem glue?

Can't go wrong with a two part epoxy. Will never come off! Mix equal and get the 5 minute stuff. It will glue anything together forever!!
