I have a 340C Classic that is having the vinyl peeling back on the top right side. What is the best way to get it to lay back down flat along the seem? I don't want to use something that will dry white and look bad.

Use Contact Cement, the type applied thinly to both surfaces then dried for about 20 minutes before joining surfaces. Clamp securely for several hours.

Remove any existing adhesive if possible before applying contact cement. Don't peel back more vinyl as it will likely stretch.

Excellent recommendation. Thank you!
