FAQs
Can this tape be used for exterior projects?
Yes, the acrylic foam adhesive is weather-resistant and designed for both indoor and outdoor use.
Is this tape removable?
No, this is designed as a permanent mounting solution. Attempting to remove it may damage the mounting surface.
What is the best way to clean the surface before applying?
Use a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol to ensure the surface is completely free of oils, waxes, or debris.
Can I use this on painted walls?
It is not recommended for painted walls, as the permanent bond can peel off the paint or the drywall surface upon removal.
Does the tape work on uneven surfaces?
The tape is conformable and works well on slightly uneven surfaces, but it must have enough contact area to create a secure bond.
How long does it take for the tape to reach full strength?
The tape provides an immediate hold, but it reaches its maximum permanent bonding strength after 72 hours.
Troubleshooting
Tape is not sticking to the surface
Ensure the surface was cleaned with alcohol to remove oils or contaminants. If the surface is porous or dusty, the tape may fail to bond properly.
Tape is peeling after a short time
Check if the object exceeds the weight capacity of the tape. Also, ensure that the application pressure was sufficient and that the tape was allowed to cure for at least 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a successful installation, follow these best practices:
Surface Prep: Clean all surfaces thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and let them air dry completely. The tape will not adhere well to greasy or dusty surfaces.
Application: Apply the tape to the object being mounted first, pressing firmly across the entire strip to remove air bubbles. Remove the release liner and press the object onto the target surface with firm, even pressure for at least 30 seconds.
Curing Time: Allow the bond to set undisturbed for at least 24 hours. While it bonds on contact, the full chemical cure of the acrylic adhesive occurs over several days.
Compatibility: Compatible materials include glass, metal, plastic, and ceramic tile. Avoid use on bare concrete, loose paint, or surfaces that lack structural integrity.
Storage: Keep rolls in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to preserve the freshness and tackiness of the adhesive.
