Gorilla Double Sided Mounting Tape

This stuff is ridiculously sticky if applied correctly. Anyone who claims it doesn’t stick do not clean the surfaces first with isopropyl alcohol. If you do that, good luck getting whatever you stuck to something back off of that surface. I have used this tape for many different applications already, and I still have a lot left. It sleeps in my “junk” drawer where it lies in wait to stick something to something else lol. It’s about an 1/8 of an inch thickness, and is easy to use. Just cut the amount desired, prepare the surfaces (both the object, and whatever you plan to stick it to), apply the tape, peel off the plastic, and BOOM! I used it to hang a picture on the wall, which in hindsight I regret. I say that because I changed my mind and when I went to pull it off of the wall, it took the paint with it. Soooo, I had to get out the drywall repair kit 🙄 and it was a whole thing. So make sure whatever you want to stick is where you really want it. I think it’s a great value since you get so much, and you can use it for a multitude of things; holding down rugs, hanging things to walls inside, or out, etc. it’s a great thing to have, just in case. Oh, and it will stick to just about anything, and it will stay stuck there basically forever. Enjoy!

When I run out my life suffers. I need this in mass quantities I use it for too many purposes. Though the clear cover is hard to take off.

This product is a fantastic find! It's reasonably priced, making it accessible for most budgets without compromising on quality. The product is exactly as described, and its usefulness cannot be overstated. I've found it to be incredibly practical and efficient in meeting my needs. The attention to detail is impressive, and the performance is on par with more expensive alternatives. If you're looking for something reliable, well-made, and at a fair price point, this is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

Strong Enough to Question My Life Choices So, I bought the Gorilla Double-Sided Mounting Tape because I was tired of using nails, hammers, and the emotional trauma that comes with hanging anything on my walls. This tape claimed it could hold basically everything except my hopes and dreams—so naturally, I had to try it. Strength: Let me put it this way: once this tape sticks to something, it forms a lifelong bond stronger than most relationships I’ve seen. I mounted a small shelf, and it’s holding on like it’s clinging to the edge of a cliff in an action movie. Application: Easy enough… until you misplace the item by half an inch. Then you realize you’ve created a permanent art installation called “Slightly Crooked.” Removing it becomes a spiritual journey. Stretchability? Eh I’m not stretchable either so who am I to judge. (They only thing I would truly recommend clean the surface before applying…..that’s a different story for a different time how I found that one out) Aesthetics: Looks like tape. But invisible once everything is stuck, which is great—because the world doesn’t need to know how many of my projects are held together by excessive optimism and adhesive. Downsides: Getting it off the roll requires the same determination as opening a jar you swore wasn’t tightened that much. If you stick something in the wrong spot, just accept it. That’s where it lives now. Forever. Upsides: Holds like a gorilla is personally hugging the object to the wall. No tools, no holes, no judgment (well, maybe a little judgment when you try to remove it). Overall: Solid tape. Slightly terrifying. Does exactly what it promises—sometimes a little too well. (Will pull paint off walls) Would I buy it again? Yes. But only after I make sure I’m absolutely sure where things are going this time.

I live in an extremely windy area, but I’ve really wanted outdoor mats outside the door to help limit dirt and debris brought inside. For a while, I just accepted that I couldn’t have any because of the crazy wind blowing them away, but I noticed that my neighbor’s mats weren’t blowing away! How they did it? I’m not sure! But I thought this would work! And it did! Pros (for mat use since that’s all I’ve used it for): - Not too thick or noticeable that it’s beneath the mat at all! - Definitely sticks! No more fly away mats to chase! - Super simple to use! Just cut what you need and stick it! Cons: - It doesn’t come with a WHOLE lot, so be a bit on the stingy side when using unless you want to buy more. I just use it in the corners, not all the way around the whole rectangle in order to conserve it! All in all, a solid solution!

Really strong hold.

I have about 30 small solar lights I did not want to drill into concrete (steps and caps). The mounting pads provided are a joke. I gave this tape a shot, its held up for 1 year and no signs of wear. can't beat that! My guess is the lights will fail before the tape.

Ok, maybe it will work but maybe it won't....we will see and I will update in 3 months. The accompanying videos and the package advertising are somewhat misleading compared to the actual instructions. The video advertisement shows two concrete cinder blocks being held together by this tape leading one to believe it has incredible hold. Yet another advertisement photo shows the tape holding up an outside porch light attached to the brick of the house. Wonderful, right? This tape has to be super strong. The packaging even says that it will stick and hold up to 60 pounds of weight and stick to concrete, brick and metal as long as the surface is flat. Rough is ok as long as the surface is flat and level. Again, this is ALL super....maybe too good to be true? THEN, you read the instructions on the package or maybe it should be called "the fine print". The fine print says, "1 inch of tape equals 1 pound of weight". What???? *&!#*!!!! Ok, I am needing to mount a security camera to the top edge of the outside stucco wall of the house, close to the eve. The mounting plate is a round metal magnet such that one side attaches to the upper wall of the house and the other side mounts the camera. The mounting plate is circular and about 3" in diameter. The camera weighs about 6 pounds. There is no way to get more than 3.75" of tape on the mounting plate. The mounting plate itself weighs about 6-8 oz itself. So, per the instructions, the tape will hold about 3.75 pounds tops, versus an item that weighs almost 6.5 pounds. Well, I put it up and I am holding my breadth that the camera does not come crashing down. Frankly, there is not a lot of apparent difference in the stickiness and texture of this tape versus the 3M tape and the camera came tumbling down after 3 days with the 3M tape. Gorilla goes to great lengths to paint the picture that their tape is superior and I am hoping they are right. However, I think the tapes design of 1" of tape equals 1 pound of weight" should be in bold in the package advertising as that is a HUGE Condition to get to 60 pounds of holding power. Literally, it would take 60 inches of tape to equal 60 pounds of weight--that is 1/2 the roll and can you imagine what that would look like! So, the jury is still out on this. I will update this review in 90 days with great news or bad. I am rating it 3 stars due to the fine print of "1 inch of tape equals 1 pound of weight" and the uncertainty of its hold versus the items weight on a concrete wall. Additionally, it is tough to get the film off the tape to make the final stick. You will need dry hands, fingernails and a lot of patience. I had to get my wife to do it. Lastly, it is pricey at $12 per roll (small). If it works, I am fine with the price. If it doesn't, it is $12 too much. Good luck!
