3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 4218P features two adhesives, one on each side of a 1.12 mm acrylic foam core, designed for robust performance and shear strength on automotive surfaces such as clear coats. The liner-side adhesive is formulated for high initial and final adhesion to rigid clear coat systems. The non-liner-side works on plastics and other common trim materials.
Developed specifically for attaching exterior trim and other parts to automotive clear coat systems, the 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 4218P features a dark grey, 1.14 mm acrylic foam core with two different adhesives one for each side of the application. The liner-side adhesive is excellent for bonding to automotive trim and other components. The non-liner-side adhesive is formulated for very high initial and final adhesion to scratch- and mar-resistant paint systems. The viscoelastic foam core conforms well even to complex geometries. It is engineered for stress relaxation when exposed to high-stress loads and maintains bond-line aesthetics under normal stress loads. The dark grey colour of 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 4218P gives a pleasing bond-line aesthetic. A red liner printed with the 3M logo provides an easy one-piece release for efficient application.
