very thorough about removing any remaining little bit or balls of the aggressive adhesive around the edges of the strips. You can do this with PEC film cleaner or
certain other solvents. Second, you need to be sure the tape came from a source where it wasn't stored for a long time in a hot area. This can affect the quality
of acrylic adhesives. I would be helpful to acquire this kind of products in sheet form rather than strips; but communicating with 3M about small volume custom
products can be like trying to teach a dog to speak Latvian.
