Default Rain Gutter adhesive

Can someone please tell me what is the best adhesive to use to stick the chrome trim on the rain gutter. I think it's a mastic of some sort???

Many thanks

Gavin

RTV seems to work well, or 3M weatherstrip adhesive. I then use the blue or green painters tape to hold it down in place while curing.
