Susco Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Looks like a magic product, strong - removable and reusable. Heat and water resistant, so has anyone used this product, and can comment on it? I would like to use it for hanging solar light on an outside perimeter wall in natural stone. The lights weigh 350 gram. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/2-2-i1326064813-s3399882296.html? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sometimewoodworker Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Yes. it sticks. it’s probably the same as the first dishonourable mentioned item at 18 minutes https://youtu.be/pqMQ4w_2KKc Edited December 18, 2020 by sometimewoodworker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinneil Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Tapes ok, i have used it on a few things, not to sure if it would be any good on stone though. Give me a day or 2 and i will try it, let you know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says it is removable, so how can a tape be strong and weak at the same time? Point is, if I need to replace the battery of the solar light, I'll have to remove it, because the battery is in the back? Is this possible, or will I most likely destroy the light at that point?

Watch the linked video ???? yes, no, maybe, are probably equally good answers to all questions.

lopburi3 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) It may hold a bit better than normal two sided adhesive (as on plastic wire conduit) but not great and really hard to use (it stretches' as you try to cut/remove/adjust). It did not hold an outlet strip on wall very long. But suspect it could be used to hold a calendar. It reminds me of the first generation wall stickers that became available in US in the 50's - OK, maybe, for a few days. Edited December 18, 2020 by lopburi3 Spelling - I hate this new edit system!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dwyer Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I use this: It is a clear two sided tape ( when you peel the red backing off ) similar to the Nano. I use it to stick a power strip to the wall , among other things. The power strip has been stuck on the wall for about 3 years now with no problems other than the switch broke and i had to replace it, took some getting off the wall i can tell you. It has also held a small (20 led ) solar light on the wall for 3 1/2 years, but the light is protected from rain and direct sunlight ( ironically ) and on a painted flat wall so not a direct comparison. Bought it at Big C i think . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowtail Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I think it's all about surface preparation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 That clear stuff comes with a lot of aliexpress things. I usually give it a try and then end up throwing it, and using the grey VHB - I buy from a reputable stationary store, I’m pretty sure it’s original 3M and not just 3M printed on the back of the tape.
