Strong double sided tape

Postby Digital » Sun Sep 19, 2010 2:38 pm

Hey guys,

wondering if anyone can recommend a strong double sided tape? I'm trying to stick my footwell lights in my interior and have tried a bunch of tapes including electrical tape but it gradually falls off, im guessing from the heat omitted from the led strips..

getting annoying, anyone recommend any of the strong good stuff and where to buy? cheers

Here is what you want mate.

Go to your local Bunnings....they *should* have it.

Mine did not stock it (I wasn't exactly sure which one I was meant to be looking for either) so I ended up getting Leo to send me some from Sydney when he was sending me some LED strips too :lol:
Now you know exactly what packaging to be looking for 8)

U-Glu's better. 3M's good but this is stronger. All tapes if not wiped clean properly like they tell you they don't hold for a period of time though.

I'm using that 3M tape to hold my K2 gear rear window spoiler on, I can't even move it with both hands.
It will be all you need, like hamish said just make sure the area is clean, if you are doing it on the plastic interior stuff make sure you wipe away any interior cleaner you may have used.
