I have a couple of attachment converters for newer front ‘seal’ attachments. The gasket/seal around the converter is worn. I noticed Hoover used a weather stripping type material and then later used a caulk type gasket. I’ve used weather stripping and it works for a while but then starts to fall off and wear out! Guess I could use super glue to glue it on. Anyway, is there a type of caulk that I could use that would be better? Or some type of gasket maker? That would be good for plastic? Does anyone know what hoover used to create the seal?

I would imagine that a generous bead of silicone would probably do the trick. | ||

Gaskets 
I've used this with success. Also works well for making a "permanent" motor gasket!
