3M Double-stick Tape

I thought i'd be using this a few times during my first build. I was wrong, I use it all the time for everything

This stuff goes a long way, I haven't yet put a dent into it.

Strong adhesion, yet easy to remove after you are done. Just used it to make a wood rosette from 1/16 veneer. Held the large piece steady, did not damage the circle when I removed it after routing.

I use this for sticking on the fingerboard slotting template and routing the fingerboard shape. While i usually use only once for safety i have reset my FB shaping template a few times to fine tune which worked well and remained sticky.

I am satisfied

Almost all double sided tape that you buy elsewhere doesn't stick all that well, and if it did it left a flimsy film that tears as it peels off, making removal attempts very difficult without using harsh chemicals that would eat whatever underneath. This tape has a tougher film, so that if you need to remove the tape all you had to do is pick at the corner of the tape and the entire film comes off cleanly, without tearing and leaving no residue. The bonding strength is a little better than normal double sided tape but the release is much better. In fact the adhesive that came with the stewmac pickguard is not as good, it's the same flimsy fiber based film that leaves part of itself on the guitar when you remove it.

Where would we be without double stick tape? It would take an essay to list all of the uses....

This is without a doubt the best double stick tape that I have ever used. Holds pieces together firmly & is easier to separate than most other tapes. Very easy to work with. Definite 5 stars...

I build guitars and pickguards for a living and I can't tell you how many rolls of this effective tape I've gone through. I use it on all my routing projects, from guitar bodies to pickguards. Highly recommeded!

If you've ever tried to find a decent double-stick tape at a big box home improvement warehouse, you know how hard it is...Don't Bother! This tape is all you need...it'll hold your shop together!
