Default Installing Vinyl Top on a 1931 Model A Ford

Any suggestions / techniques for sealing the edge of the vinyl top material so that there will never be leak ?

Mine came with this bug tube of clear sealer. The stuff looked like model airplane glue.

Put sealer on every layer that sits in the tack line / grove. Put sealer under the finish molding. Make sure every nail in the underlayments are coated with sealer. Whistle while you work and have fun.
