Default Covering not sticking

I have Coverite material that will not stick. I want to apply an additional adhesive on the frame but do not want to pay the shipping cost for a 8oz can of Balsarite. Is there a replacement adhesive I can get across the street at the Carr Hardware that will work as well? Thank you.

I have found that aliphatic glues (like Titebond II) works fairly well as a heat sensitive glue. Just put as thin a coat as you can on the surface you want to attach the covering to, let it dry then just iron down the covering over it.
