    Peeling corners bike frame decals and how to re-attach them

    Hello, I noticed an original decal on my bike frame was starting to peel slightly on two corners. It is otherwise in condition. I wondered if anyone had any suggestions of what could be used that might stick the corners back down but without damaging the frame/paint or being too permanent?
