Been there brother! Save your time and go for the correct and most effective fix with this.
Wedge towels behind your seats to push on the glass and blue tape on outside to hold top material to glass. Give it 24hrs to cure and trim off any dried ooze on glass with a razor blade.

Thanks so much for the advice on how to fix the back window separation. I was wondering how to go about doing it no matter what glue i used.

get the suction cup clamps. Makes the repair very easy.

+1 for suction cups. I tried without them 2x and the results weren't satisfactory. I still have a small leak.

Here is a post by John that shows use of the clamps

Here are the clamps we used with success

Key is to get even pressure and have the clamps location pre planned. We found that doing a dry run with the clamps to ensure you know where each clamp goes and actually clamping the canvas to the window before applying glue is an essential step to avoid problems. The adhesive is very stickey and will NOT come off anything it touches. So you done want to be figuring out how to clamp it after applying the glue.

I cannot believe how helpful the people on this forum are. I had enough skills to keep my old MGB-GT or my VW bus on the road when I was young, but lost a lot of my knowledge and abilities for working on cars when I started leasing, and now in my 70s I find that I often need guidance. Thanks to you and to the many others.

More than a few of us are of the same age range. Or older even. But several of us are old engineers and old gear heads who love to collect knowledge, tools and skills and are happy to share.
