3M™ Die-Cuttable Tape DC2005PET securely attaches nameplates, badges and emblems to the exterior of vehicles. This black foam tape features two adhesives, one on each side of a firm acrylic polymer core. The 0.5 mm tape is produced with minimal edge-weld, making it especially suitable for die cutting. A clear, low-stretch polyester liner is silicone treated on both sides for easy one-piece release and efficient tape application.
