Hi folks!
I’m looking for targa vinyl adhesive recommendations and what products to stay away, I read Eric’s installation summary (thanks a bunch!!) but besides 3M didn’t find any specific p/n for 3M or other good adhesives. Who has used what and with what kind of experience? Car is fresh painted (about 3 months old) and I really don’t want to fudged it up with some “budget/mainstream” FLAPS stuff. Thanks in advance! dc |

Interesting approach about the double sided tape!
Do you have a p/n or description of it? I don’t know if it’s my phone, but your picture looks like that there are “lines” showing. In what pattern did you apply the tape for in between the edges? Cheers! |

In what pattern did you apply the tape for in between the edges? Cheers! i used 3M 9088 Double Sided High Performance Clear Tape. Its 0.1mm thick and so invisible. I DID NOT use VMB foam tape which is incredibly sticky but also 1mm thick. I put tape around the perimeter of the panel initially and then "wrapped" the edges onto tape there. The vinyl stretched slightly as I formed it over the panel and stayed in position well once onto the tape. I guess you could add more rows of tape but my upholsterer friend suggested what I did. Time will tell..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
