Hello - question about fabric glue

[Izzy]

new to the forum - have a super D - first 'fabric' airplane - had the 1000 hour wing strut attachment brackets replacement done and the 'fabric' that was tacked down now has lose edges - I don't want the wind tearing it - is there a safe glue to use to tach down the edges? appreciate any help

Might look into a Stewart’s System patch over the loose edge. I am not having great success gluing inside separated seams, but the Stewart’s never lets go.
Minor Alteration is the phrase I would use, although I believe the patch is in their STC.

Depends on the covering system used. Sounds like your aircraft is newer, so I assume the cover is factory. I think @Bartman might have posted the current factory process here somewhere. I would use the same glue if available.

Thanks!!
spoke to them today (Awesome) and ordered 4 oz of their EkoBond. Per their tech guy seems perfect for tacking down the edges to new braces. Will post an update when have tried it.

Don't forget the heat seal feature.
