How to install parts with 3M-VHB Tape, featuring ATLP CSL-Style Spoiler

The problem with 3M VHB tape is, once you stick it, IT'S STUCK. That makes positioning parts before attaching them particularly difficult. We use this technique to install all kinds of spoilers and accessories with 3M VHB tape.
VHB Stands for "Very High Bond." Attaching the part with only a small corner of the tape will allow you to reposition the part before it gets completely stuck. Peel the backing away from behind the part after the part is positioned!

Thanks for the information regarding the holes, I just got a spoiler that had like 6 holes in random places and people mentioned on forums I was reviewing to just tape over them and go on with life. This video is a life saver, I just wish that the retailers would put more explanation on there merchandise because there wasn't any unfortunately.

@Heeltoe. Год назад

Glad I could help!

@christianguzman8494 Год назад

Thank you for the tip of peeling the edge so it's easier. My first try was a fail but i will use this to make it perfect!

@Heeltoe. Год назад

Glad it helped :)

@azmike3572 5 лет назад

So that you don't lose the fold-over red part of the tape (as what happened here), you can extend them with masking tape and tape them them down before pulling them out.

@Heeltoe. 5 лет назад

Great tip!!!

@xactomundo9938 Год назад

Glad I learned what those little holes on the inside are for. Cheers!

Nice work, bro. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It helped me out a lot!

Can you use this 3M VHB for lightweight door protectors (so your car door doesn’t hit the car next to it) AND MOST IMPORTANTLY get it off at a later date without ruining the paint ???? ❤

@ZMalakBT 3 месяца назад

Great video, thanks for the tips.

@johneddrexbalena8801 2 месяца назад

does it still hold on during high speeds and rain or moisture? how is the tape different than the 3m molding tape

@supernova4300 4 года назад

Learnt something. Didn't know what the hole was for, now I do. Fortunately I didn't plug it.

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

The more you know! #HTinyourcorner

@adrianreed5110 4 года назад

quick question, I noticed the black tape on your trunk before you installed. Did you have a factory spoiler on the car? If so, how did you take it off, I'm not sure of the factory spoiler is bolted or not.

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

This is a Type-S and as such it did have an OE spoiler on it. The stock spoiler is held on with bolts and tape.

@billrivers2578 2 года назад

Does it hold with car wash and wind on freeway????

@Heeltoe. 2 года назад

If you stick it to a clean surface and the part fits will, it holds on perfect. Very strong!

@marks.4776 6 лет назад

Which 3M VHB tape are you using in this video? I am looking to do something similar with my Chrysler 300S...thanks

@Heeltoe. 6 лет назад

We don't have the code at the time...it is a special one our product supplier recommended. Use the grey one!

@derekaguiar1420 8 месяцев назад

Is installation recommended on warmer days, unlike currently during winter here in December 29 2023…

@Heeltoe. 8 месяцев назад

Yes different tapes will work better in different temperatures. I don't know that it needs to be a warmer day but that might be relative to where you're located. I would probably wait till days that are above 60° myself.

@derekaguiar1420 6 месяцев назад

With holes leftover from OEM spoiler, you think it’ll be help to use a couple of them holes & drill into the heel toe spoiler for extra strength?? I have the Carbon duckbill for Honda Accord… just was thinking of that idea

@Heeltoe. 6 месяцев назад

That would only be good if there were threaded inserts on the bottom side of the spoiler, which the there are not. Screwing into the carbon would make it hold any better.

@veronicallamas2910 3 года назад

When You use 3m tape , Do You need to heat to stick better?

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

Good moderate temps are best, 60-80 degrees works well!

@ntartaris 4 года назад

I'd recommend you prepare the surface all with adhesive promoter.

@timesn7774 4 года назад

Does it hurt if you get more than surface than you need with adhesive promoter?

@timesn7774 4 года назад

@@ntartaris thanks.. what about putting directly on the 3m tape?

@ntartaris 4 года назад

@@timesn7774 You put the promoter on the surface of the car, not the tape itself

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

We have not found a need for adhesive promoter in most cases. Our tape is good enough that good clean surface promotes plenty of adhesion. Also the ATLP/FLP parts we make fit the counters of the body well. The tape is not tugged on so much as a result.

@flakovazquez4930 3 года назад

I was wondering if you remove the acura oem spoiler would it leave holes in the trunk or when you put on the new spoiler would it cover it?

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

OEM spoiler yes, OEM wing, no.

@nerihugo5 4 года назад

How are those stickers holding on to them whole from the trunk does water still go in??

@Heeltoe. 3 года назад

They aren't "stickers," this is high-bond 3M foam tape. It's super strong when applied correctly (as in the video). If you have holes for an OEM spoiler then definitely you want to cover those.

How well does 3m tape stick to chrome?

@playgan0716 8 лет назад

did you guys make 1 that is a bolt on and not just 3m tape? so it prevents people from stealing it? i mean its a $300 product and i defenetly wouldn't want it get stolen by simply lifting it up? i plan on buying 1

@Heeltoe. 8 лет назад

You definitely don't need bolts. Installing this spoiler properly, as in the video, will make removing it extremely difficult. Fact: this spoiler we installed was attempted to be stolen a few months later and the part was unable to be removed. It cannot be simply pulled off the car.

Most important is dry time for 3m double side tape, 1 day, 2 days or 3 days, MIT or true?

We would allow a couple hours to let it firm up, but maybe a couple days before you would wash the car.

I recently bought a used oem type s trunk lip but not sure what mm double sided tape to use as I went to my nearest auto parts store and they only had one size and the one on the lip seems to be a much thinner tape. Does anyone know the size of the double sided tape to use for a oem type s trunk lip?

@Heeltoe. 5 лет назад

You can use the wider one, or get the wider one and cut it if you want thinner strips.
