The second half of the restoration article explains the faceplate removal and glueing procedure.
I suggest you remove the faceplate, depending on how much has separated, as that way you can put a reverse curve on it so that it glues back to the case with the corners down. If the raised edges are not to great then a fine paint brush and contact cement will work. Make sure to press the glue joint for a few minutes to ensure it does not raise.
Cheers, Geoff
