Using 3M adhesive tape
-
What can I bond with this 3M adhesive tape?
It is a double-sided adhesive transfer tape for mounting laser-cut and engraved pieces, bonding acrylic, wood and leatherette to fabric, apparel, signage and hard surfaces for a clean, permanent hold with no sewing or messy glue. It comes in a few grades: 300LSE is the most versatile and grips the widest range of surfaces, including low-surface-energy plastics, while 467MP and 468MP are tuned for metals and high-energy plastics.

How do I apply it?
Apply the tape to the back of your material first and press it down firmly, it is pressure-activated, so firm, even pressure is what builds the bond. Then cut your piece, the liner is laser-safe and cuts cleanly along with the material. When you are ready to mount, peel the liner and press firmly onto your surface.

Which 3M adhesive should I choose?
It depends on the surface and the wear it will see. Our guide, 3M Double-Sided Adhesive for Laser Cutting: Which One Should You Choose, walks through the options so you can match the tape to your project.
-
Do I need this if my leatherette already has TPU adhesive?
Not for press-on leatherette patches, those already carry a heat-activated TPU melt backing. Reach for this tape when you are mounting acrylic, wood, or sheets without adhesive, or when you want a no-heat option.
