Default loose door skin

I am sure this question has been asked a thousand time but I couldn't find anything doing a search. I just noticed that my driverside doorskin is seperating from the door. It is all along the bottom and at the rear corner. The car has new paint and I would not like to destroy it. How can I fix this before the panel comes off going down the road?

finish peeling it off, clean it up and reattach with Fusor. If you just want to patch it on, clean it out where it is seperated best as you can, squirt some fusor in there and clamp it over night.

I think that is what I will do in the future. For now I went to advance auto parts and picked up some quick set epoxy. I mixed it up, used some spring clamps, and 30 minutes later it's holding. So for now it will hold until I can fix it correctly. I kind of scares me of the thought of removing the whole panel. Do you know where I can pick-up Fusor?
