restick
Make sticky again
To restick is to stick again—reattaching something that has come loose or lost its adhesion.
The term appears most often with adhesive items like notes, labels, or bandages: The Post-it fell off, so I restuck it to the monitor.
Restickable describes materials designed to be repositioned multiple times without losing their grip.
