An acrylic adhesive applied to both sides is formulated for excellent initial and final tack on MSE substrates and LSE clear coats.
The liner enhancement does not affect the adhesive performance or liner removal from the tape, and does not impact the finished product
Designed specifically for attaching plastic parts to automotive paint surfaces, our 3M™ Acrylic Plus Tape EX4515 is great for challenging surfaces. It features a 1.5 mm acrylic foam core with an acrylic adhesive applied to both sides. This adhesive delivers excellent initial and final tack to traditional, low surface energy and scratch- and mar-resistant automotive paints. It is especially effective on medium surface energy plastics such as ABS and polycarbonate (PC) — it can even be used to bond to MSEs without an adhesion promoter. The viscoelastic foam core is engineered for stress relaxation when exposed to high stress loads, and maintains bond-line aesthetics under normal stress loads. Its deep black color delivers excellent bond lines and helps to ensure high satisfaction among consumers. A red, 3M branded liner provides easy one-piece release for efficient application.
