Default 2007 XKR door panel repair

Not sure how many have issues with the glue de-laminating or plastic pieces breaking off door panels.
I found a gr8 3M product.
Panel Binding Adhesive: 08115 200 mL $58 US
Innovations 200 mL dual Component Cartridge Gun $48 US
I used this on the driver side panel and clamped and let set overnight and door is like new no rattles or looseness.
Do Need to be sure all surfaces are clean of any grease - break off any old glue that you can.

I did a video on the repair. It''s fairly common. Most guys start with a heat gun or hair drier to soften the glue and press it in place. I did this:

Thank you - well done - I have used heat guns to revitalize plastics in the past, but the glue on my panel was hard and crumbling and several plastic retainers were cracked so Epoxy panel bond was the best solution to my situation. This is on the backside of the panel not the interior side but the back side of panel.
