The 3M™ Die-Cuttable Tape DC2008S2 is specifically formulated for exterior automotive applications, making it perfect for attaching badges, emblems, and nameplates. Its unique dual-adhesive system, with adhesives on both sides of a firm acrylic polymer core, ensures superior bonding to both painted and chrome surfaces. The tape is 0.8 mm thick, providing the right balance of flexibility and strength for precise die-cutting, even for narrow or intricate patterns.

Key features include excellent twist resistance, minimal edge-welding, and smooth bondline appearance, which help maintain professional aesthetics while preventing detachment or rework. The white 3M HDPE liner protects the tape core and adhesives, facilitating efficient application with one-piece release. The black color of the tape core remains inconspicuous, blending seamlessly with vehicle exteriors for a clean and polished look.

Applications include automotive exterior attachments such as badges, rain sensor brackets, and other vehicle emblems. The tape’s handling properties ensure quick, accurate, and durable application, reducing installation time while improving overall product reliability.
