 If you buy something from Powerful UK they always have strips of the 3M double sided foam tape on and its AMAZINGLY sticky.

I always heat the surface of the tape and the surface to which it is to be applied with a heat gun or hairdryer. This is particularly relevant at this time of the year.

Happy to bring a couple of extra rolls back with me next week ( on a plane to he US at the moment) There is a difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t

| Martin Site Admin Member Since: 24 Mar 2007 Location: Hook Norton Posts: 1673    | The fact it's not sticky and the ad is worded the way it is still points at fake tape. | ||
