Best adhesive for carpet?

I was wondering if any of you guys have any suggestions for gluing carpet back down in the hatch area. I've been using the cover on my well a lot in the past few weeks and it's pulled the carpet off the back wall from where it hangs up on the carpet. It's gonna see a lot of action in the next few months cause I gotta hide my textbooks in my car, so I need adhesive thats really strong.

3-M Super Trim 8080 or 8090,both are good to use.DO NOT use the Super 77 it will not hold.

I'm guessing you would have to get that at a trim shop, or would a normal parts store have it?
