Double sided tape suggestions

[reverendzed]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to fix down my new bonnet vents and want to try a really high stick double sided tape.  I wondered if anyone had any suggestions/brands/places to purchase etc.

Thanks,

Rev.

+2 on the red covered / grey colour 3M double sided tape. It's been holding down the fibreglass eyelids on my X-trail for the last 2-3 years!

3m VHB tape is nuts, its used for mounting aluminium panels onto the exteriour of buildings (on the buildings where you can't see any fasteners) and in strong winds they claim it will bend a 25x25mm section subframe its mounted to before the tape lets go

Just a thought: if it is a foam cell tape wont it trap moisture?

its more like soft tacky rubber. it is used in the automotive industry constantly

I used 3m tape on my NISSAN badges, one day i wanted to de-badge before a cut & polish. the tape took the paint with it!

 

so if you want to remove it, use heat/hair dryer to melt the glue and then fishing line, braided nylon or similar to 'floss' it off the panel

Nope.  Thats the stuff you learn in the trade from the guy in the corner who's been doing the job for 30 years.  And its a brilliant trick that works really well in this case, can also be used to cut through silicone/sikaflex etc....

Go to www.tapesonline.com.au Thery sell all types of tape.

In the double sided tapes section there is a Ultra High Bond grey tape, Manufactured in Germany.

Used it for mounting signs at work, amazingly stong stuff.
