Best to just shoot the glue in the slot and push in the T-Molding, then let it set?

As far as using masking tape, is one piece enough or do we need to do more?  The T-Molding goes in, a little resistance, holds ok on straight areas, just mostly at corners.

Yeah, load it in there but be quick about it as hot glue sets up fast, fast, fast.

I thought about using glue, and I was concerned about replacing the t-molding if it got nicked up or something. I'm sure it would work though.

That's what's so great about hot glue.  It holds it well enough, but if you need to you can pull the t-molding out, as well as all the glue, with little trouble.

I had this problem once

To remedy the situation I filled the groove with tacky glue, then pushed hard on the molding & then ran a really tight strip of blue painters tape from one side to the other.....every inch or two.

After it cured all was well.
