The decal on my fiberglass is coming off of the side of my boat. What is the safest adhesive to use to reattach the decal to my boat without damaging the gel coat?

I would try glue stick... The Best Glue Sticks
Winner: Elmer's Washable School Glue Stick
Testers liked that it came out purple ("so you can see exactly where you put it") yet dried clear. It fastened "perfectly," too.

LMAO... above post was funny
I would just get new decals because if you get some kind of adhesive it will probably just wear off again really fast and wouldnt be worth it..

the above post is funny.. he didn't ask for any thing but to reattach.. reattach the decal to my boat now if he doesn't want to do that, then yes, replacement is the other choice..

Mine are not the flat style, they are the bubbled Triton stickers. I posted to see if she has that capability. Thanks

sorry didn't know it was the bubble type..I don't think you'll get new one from anyone but a dealer..
gorilla glue, if you want to save them....but don't know about the gel under them, of course it doesn't really matter, if you put a new decal on, if these ever come off..
