3M VHB Tape

davidr3 · 08-04-2020, 11:28 PM

Where does everyone buy 3M VHB tape, I can only find rebranded stuff where they cut the roll, I assume adhesion is lost in the process. Or whatever tape you guys use for trunk lips
Up till now i've gotten away with running the 3M super strength tape

FWIW - I buy them on Amazon and eBay. There's no loss of adhesion... but I also prep with alcohol and a heat gun... like clean the surface, heat the tape a little with the gun... apply/stick... and then heat gun it for a few minutes.

The stuff LOVES heat - makes it stickier.
