Have you tried to place a hot iron on it? If that does not reactivate the glue, the best glue for it is a two part epoxy, or you could super glue it. I have done that too.

Clear Contact Cement, if the hot iron over cardboard suggestion fails.

Counter top contact glue. Spread a thin coat on both surfaces with cheap foam brushes, wait till tacky (see label) and press & roll together, works great. You can use painters tape to "clamp". Not all trim work is iron-on, but you can buy that type but the color may not match.

I have the same problem, I am very upset that cabinets are even made that way, they should be painted. I now am in the process of deciding what to do, get all new kitchen or just new doors and drawers.

We have had the same problem and used E600 glue. Comes in a tube and will fix anything!

Check with Home Depot I'm sure there is something made to re-glue veneer. That is what this is.

the glue is wax based - you could try hot iron on top of the tape and move from one end to the other - if that does not work, take a hot glue gun and run a bid of glue and press the strip down or you can use the iron.

Since you will have to go and purchase the adhesive anyway, why not ask the Home Depot/Lowe's associate while you are there?

Try warming the glue that's already there with a blow dryer. When it gets really warm try pushing down the vinyl. Don't use the blow dryer directly on the vinyl because it can melt it.
