Dumb me. Was trying to help Eagle guy and realized I have 5 new stainless sheets to install myself. Other than IBP or Prevost is this a common two side tape available  locally?  Bob

Hey Bob, is the sides on yours riveted or glued? I wonder how they bond the unriveted aluminum?

Rivets Rule! They started after mine year wise and have redone several. The adhesive looks like a gray tape material. some I'm replacing was damaged in fire above wheel well   I forgot tape/material when I ordered siding.  Brain lapse---Was hoping it was common   item.   Bob

I believe you are speaking of VHB by 3M. VHB Very High Bond can be found on EBay......... ;D

Doesn't Prevost use the JVCC ultra bond I thought the 3M VHB was foam filled ?
