Mythical Velcro?..what's the best?..

[quincey]

Some help needed!..I'm trying to find out what Velcro people use?..all my stuff is useless,it always comes away from the chassis and never stays on bodyshells..but if I buy a second hand car the Velcro inside is welded to the chassis and the stuff on the shell never comes off...where do you find this mythical stuff!..I've never been able to find it in my local model shop and he says it's also no good( so why stock it! ).

I use the stuff from Range desined to turn curtains and hems up with stick it on leave for about 24hours before you try to put the shell on or take it off lasts for ages and cheap.

Do you degrease the chassis and bodyshell before applying the tape? And if so, how do you do that?

I've always bought heavy duty velcro off ebay...

Cleaning the surfaces, and sticking it on well before you need it so the adhesive has chance to properly cure is another good bit of advice.

Clean with isopropyl alcohol and use 3m velcro myself
