A y ear ago I discovered I installed the strips on the rail upside down. I purchased new strips and installed them now one is lifting at the end in the center, has anyone else had this problem and if so what did you use to re stick the strip? I really do not want to buy new strips again.

Thanks

George

I don't have that problem but I would start with a good contact spray on contact cement.

I would contact Wixey (digital@wixey.com). They have always been very responsive to my inquiries. I have had he DRO for many years but, live in a mild climate and have not had your issue so this is just speculation (but, at least its free :)). If the failure is large enough for you to see the original adhesive, is it brittle or gummy? If gummy, you would need to get as much out of the gap as you can and re-glue as Wixey recommends. If brittle and the fit is good when you apply pressure, clean out any loose spoil and try a drop of a good quality CA-glue and hand pressure for a few seconds.
