Part of a family of specialty 3M adhesives for automobiles
3M™ Spray Trim Adhesive securely attaches lightweight trim materials such as upholstery cloth and trunk liners to a variety of surfaces. We also recommend this adhesive for positioning applications where mechanical fasteners will be added later. The aerosol spray makes applications easy for both automotive and household uses.

3M™ Spray Trim Adhesive builds strength rapidly to provide a fast, aggressive tack while having a long bonding range. Our trim adhesive creates a secure bond on metal and other impervious surfaces, but it also provides low soak in on porous substrates. This spray adhesive is perfect for quickly fixing loose trim that starts to separate or for installing new material in an automotive restoration project.

Our 3M™ Spray Trim Adhesive may be used to bond polystyrene in place. This product is the only trim adhesive we recommend for bonding styrene.

Our spray trim adhesive (PDF, 84 Kb) offers a number of convenience features. For starters, it comes in an easy-to-spray aerosol. Its low mist formulation means less overspray onto surrounding surfaces. It also offers a fast strength build-up that sets quickly, eliminating the need to hold materials in place for long.

Directions for Use
  • Clean bonding surfaces to remove wax, oils, mold release agents, dust and any other contaminants.
  • Remove cover and turn nozzle to dot on the can rim.
  • Shake can well before each use and periodically during use.
  • Hold can 3 - 7 inches away from surface and apply a light to moderate coating of adhesive overlapping the spray pattern on each pass.
  • Apply adhesive to one or both surfaces as desired. Applying to both surfaces produces a much stronger bond and is recommended whenever possible.
  • Allow the product to dry between coats if multiple coats are needed to provide sufficient adhesive for bonding. It is better to apply multiple coats than to apply one heavy coat of product.
  • Allow the adhesive to dry until tacky but will not transfer when touched.
  • Bond surfaces using firm, uniform pressure.
