There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have clamped two items together with the tape in between and let sit for a day. Stuck for good.
Pay attention to what you are bonding. I don't think this would do a good job on foam, wood, concrete or other very grainy and porous surfaces. I believe that its strengths are plastic, metal, glass, and other smooth surfaces.

This stuff is amazing. The bond is quick so you had better get your parts lined up right the first time. If not, good luck getting them apart intact.
Overall I am very impressed. With proper surface prep and the right temps you will be very impressed.
Buy genuine 3M for the best results. Lots of knock off brands out there...look like 3M but aren't. Your results may vary.

This is 100% genuine 3M, wasn't dry at all, and it's adhesion was unbelievable.
I used it to install a spoiler. Made one mistake and almost completely screwed myself over because I couldn't get the spoiler off after one second of it touching my car. Unreal product.
Use this with adhesion promoter. It's expensive to get both, but necessary if you want to do things right and be safe. Also, the setting you use this in and the prep you do makes ALL the difference. Don't get impatient or lazy because you'll pay the price.
I'm sure some people did legitimately get a defective product, but that can happen with even the best products in the world from time to time. I'd say this is the best tape in the world easily. Others probably just used it wrong and the product isn't to blame.
