3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5356, Gray, 1.52 mm

Designed for High Adhesion to a Range of Automotive Surfaces
Developed specifically for attaching exterior trim and other parts to automotive surfaces, our 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5356 features a thick, gray, 1.52 mm acrylic foam core with a performance acrylic adhesive applied to both sides. This adhesive is formulated for high initial and final adhesion to a wide range of trim and parts as well as automotive paint systems including rigid clear coats. The viscoelastic foam core conforms well even to complex contours. It is engineered for stress relaxation when exposed to high stress loads, and maintains bond-line aesthetics under normal stress loads. The gray color of 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5356 gives a pleasing bond line aesthetic. A red liner printed with the 3M logo provides easy one-piece release for efficient application.

3M recommends the use of 3M™ Adhesion Promoter for tape-to-part adhesion with 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5314 on all parts, especially plastics such as RIM, TPO, PPO, PP and PC.
