Default Door bubble



Hello everybody thank you in advance for your advice and feedback. Got a 1988 Corvette with the metallic blue interior and I’ve got a door bubble on the passenger side. Has anybody completed this type of repair before. Pictures below

I would try heat and pressure. Hair dryer or heat gun, judiciously. Just enough heat, not bunches of heat. Then take your gloved hand and press it down. See if it stays down. Heat will often reactivate dried out adhesives. But not always.

Second choice would be a syringe and a small jolt of contact adhesive. One or two slide in pokes. You will need some kind of overnight pressure to keep it positioned while glue dries.
