JTAPE\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jtape.com\/en-us\/product\/high-strength-acrylic-tape\/\">High Strength Clear Acrylic Tape<\/a> is a high-strength tape featuring adhesive on either side, which makes it ideal for mounting interior fixtures such as car mirrors. Thanks to its varying widths available, it can also be applied to fixtures without being visible.<\/p>\n<h3>Double-Sided Mounting Tape<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jtape.com\/en-us\/product\/double-sided-mounting-tape\/\">JTAPE Double-Sided Mounting Tape<\/a> features a heavy-duty adhesive that\u2019s age, chemical, UV, heat and weather resistant. This makes it perfect for permanently attaching everything from trims to mirrors without the need for drilling or screws. Instead, you can achieve a clean finish with the unseen adhesive.<\/p>\n<h2>Uses for double-sided mounting tapes on car interiors<\/h2>\n<p>So, what can double-sided mounting tape be used for on car interiors? Here are a few of the tasks this high-strength automotive tape can help most with, from securing interior mirrors to attaching interior trim components.<\/p>\n<h3>Interior car mirror mounting<\/h3>\n<p>Double-sided mounting tapes are also an excellent choice for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jtape.com\/en-us\/news\/using-mounting-tape-for-automotive-mirror-fixing\/\">interior car mirror mounting<\/a>. Whether you\u2019re replacing a broken rear-view mirror or re-mounting glass that has loosened or fallen out, these tapes can make sure that the glass stays in place no matter what.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend using our High Strength Acrylic Tape for this job because of its excellent durability and strength. To attach an interior car mirror using this double-sided mounting tape, follow the three simple steps below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Clean the backing plate &amp; remove the old glass if necessary: If the old glass is still in place either fully or partially, this will need to be carefully removed using a metal or plastic scraper. Lodge this underneath the glass to loosen it from the backing plate. Once you\u2019ve removed it, the backing plate should be thoroughly cleaned with rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth to make sure no dirt, oil or adhesive residue remains.<\/li>\n<li>Apply the tape: Cut two or three strips of our High-Strength Acrylic Tape and apply these vertically on the left right and middle of the back of your new mirror. Once you\u2019re happy with the placement, you can remove the protective release liner to reveal the double-sided adhesive.<\/li>\n<li>Secure it in place: Press the interior mirror glass to the backing plate, making sure to apply pressure over any areas with tape. This will ensure you achieve a strong bond.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Bonding interior car trim components<\/h3>\n<p>Reattaching interior trim components that have become loose? Adding some personal touches with custom trims for a customer? We recommend using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jtape.com\/en-us\/product\/grey-double-sided-acrylic-tape\/\">Grey Double-Sided Acrylic Tape<\/a> which is not only good for attaching interior car trim components, but it\u2019s also ideal for mounting external trim parts. This high-tack adhesive can provide an excellent bond, which means that it can be trusted not to loosen and compromise the safety of your customers when they\u2019re driving.<\/p>\n<p>Again, the application process is simple and easy since it doesn\u2019t require any drilling or screwing. It\u2019s also worth noting that if you\u2019re removing and replacing an interior trim component, you\u2019ll need to remove this first which might involve locating screws or fastenings and loosening these accordingly. If you\u2019re simply attaching a new glovebox, pillar trim or other plastic interior trim part, you can go straight in and clean the area with rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth to remove any dust, dirt or debris.<\/p>\n<p>Once the area is clean, you can cut and apply Grey Double-Sided Acrylic Tape to the back of the trim component wherever it will bond to the car\u2019s interior. You should apply as many pieces of tape as necessary to make sure the bond will be safe and secure. When you\u2019re happy that you\u2019ve added enough tape and placed it correctly, you can remove the protective release liner and expose the double-sided adhesive ready to bond to the car\u2019s interior. The final step is to attach the piece of trim and press down firmly where the tape has been applied to secure it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Whether you\u2019re new to the automotive industry or simply want to improve the services you offer to customers, we hope this guide has helped you learn a thing or two about using double-sided tapes on car interiors.
