Just about to do a complete makeover on our 2008 Indiana and now that I have removed the cabinet doors for painting I've found that the edges of the laminate is peeling back . Any suggestions on a fast drying glue ?

Try a clothes Iron with a piece of cotton between laminate and Iron. It can 'rejuvenate' adhesive, and may work for a while! I use it on my jointing strips on the wall covering of my van, which are notorious (by Lunar brand) for peeling up over time! It works well for a time, but inevitably is an annual tasks!
Start with a low temp and work upwards until adhesion achieved and before plastic laminate itself starts to melt!

Any additional adhesive application is likely to result in excess 'contaminating' the visible surfaces, and any attempts with solvent to remove excess are likely to damage the typically 'printed' cosmetic surface, so caution required.

I have had great success with good old fashioned PVA glue and a plastic seam roller but you have to keep going back with roller till glue is dry.
Easy to wipe away excess and dries clear. Apply with very small paintbrush
only use this if iron fails bit still had to use it extensively on my sons van

Thanks for the replys...tried iron but it made the melamine shink . Tried vinyl glue with no success. Finally got contact adhesive success. They couple that I did first attempts with vinyl glue didn't bond great with contact adhesive. Cut them back and filled with two pack car body filler . Worked a dream . 🤣🤣
