[Closed] Which glue for bike decals?

The decals on my Cove are peeling at the edges (suprise!) I bought some 3M spray adhesive which I had seen recommended on a roadie forum. Although it works, as soon as I wash the bike they start to peel. Anyone have any experience with anything that actually survives a wash?

superglue will most likely run and leave marks.

Maybe something like no-more nails if it dries clear and squeeze it out quickly and clean up any mess before it cures.

If not then look for the clear araldite.

But neither of those will come off again so maybe just a normal contact adhesive - bostick etc.

Clear silicone sealant you can buy small tubes from aquarium shops. Mask around the decal apply a smear to the decal wipe off excess. Will dry as good as glue and is waterproof.
