3M™ 5611 Acrylic Foam Tape | 1.1mm Grey Heavy Duty
Description:
3M™ 4298UV Adhesion Promoter (3ml Sponge Applicator)
The Professional Secret to a Permanent Bond.
If you are bonding 3M™ VHB™ tape to plastics like PP, EPDM, TPO, or ABS, using an adhesion promoter is the difference between a bond that lasts years and one that fails in weeks. This 3ml sponge applicator is specifically designed to chemically prep the surface for maximum adhesive "wet-out".
★★ WHY USE 4298UV? ★★
- Maximum Adhesion: Triples the bond strength on difficult "low surface energy" automotive plastics and paints.
- UV Indicator: Contains a UV dye, allowing you to verify uniform coverage under a blacklight—ensuring no spots are missed.
- Precision Applicator: The convenient 3ml sponge stick allows for a clean, drip-free application exactly where you need the tape to sit.
- Fast Acting: Dries in seconds, so you can apply your 3M™ tape immediately after prepping the surface.

PRO-INSTALLATION TIPS
Achieving a Permanent Bond:
- Surface Prep: Ensure both surfaces are clean and dry (a 50:50 IPA/Water mix is recommended).
- Pressure is Key: This is a pressure-sensitive adhesive. Firm pressure across the entire surface "wets out" the adhesive for maximum contact.
Cure Time:
- 20 Minutes: 50% ultimate strength.
- 24 Hours: 90% ultimate strength.
- 72 Hours: 100% full permanent bond.
Liner Hack: Use a hobby knife to gently nick a corner of the red film liner for an easier, frustration-free peel.
