Default Hood emblem loose

What kind of adhesive should I use to glue down a hood emblem that is lifting on the edges? Thanks

From experience you should purchase another emblem, re-clean the surface and put it on. JMHO

I had Mr. Goodwrench replace mine while the car was still under warranty as one side of the emblem was sticking up.

If it were me, I'd just take the old one off and put a new one one. Much cleaner that way.
