"I use this double sided tape to hold down wood on my CNC router, It is super strong, easy to apply and easy to remove leaving no residue."
"its the best solution I found for making a computer chair floor mat out of something a little more visually appealing and pleasant to walk bare feet on than hard vinyl."
"I was a little worried that when it comes time to redecorate, the tape would take up the wood along with the wood finishing so I did a test - and no damage removing the tape/carpeting."
"I had small rugs inside each outside door."
"my daughter said, "I taped the rug down with that tape you got from Amazon.". Cat likes it too."
"The only caveats are (1) it leaves a residue on scissors if you are using them to cut it to length, so you need to wipe the scissors' blades with rubbing alcohol every few cuts, and (2) best if you apply it with the paper backing in place, it tends to bunch up if you try to pull part of the strip up to reposition it."
"This was a great purchase for any rug on a hard surface like tile or wood floors."
Each kit covers up to 110 sq ft; two coats highly recommended; wait 1-2 hours to recoat allow to dry for 3 days before exposing to water.

Find Best Price at Amazon"I'll try to keep this short as there are lots of reviews on this product, and I just have one important tip to add. Background: I was refinishing a very old clawfoot tub, that my wife ruined the finish on, by trying to clean it with the wrong product. The fumes from drying can still persist weeks after, so I think it's good to allow lots of time before using. I wasn't ready to give up, since the tub is probably about 300 pounds and I didn't have a way of removing it from the house. I talked to an autobody shop and they said they could sell me some epoxy primer, but we both suspected it would also have lifted the paint. It did produce a small bump, because I was afraid of making the Weldbond layer too thin, thus allowing paint to get in. I also had a few small chips get in the tub, when I dropped a plastic shower head holder. I swore I prepped it well, with bleach, tsp, sanding, lime away, and acetone. With some research, I found out that the professionals use an acrylic urethane with a binder layer that goes on first. I did a third coat and tried an even better "hi-density" roller, which was a slightly yellow color and velvety to the touch."
"Don't buy the roller that Amazon recommends...do not buy one that has one of the 'foam' style roller parts. Use a paint brush for these areas. I put one coat on some things, let it sit over night, and applied the second coat the next day. The areas that I applied the second coat within the 30min-1 hour range turned out much better. Splurge on a new paint brush-don't use a paint brush that you've used previously and may have some sort of residues in it. My entire bathroom remodel consisted of: -Tub and Tile resurfacing kits by RustOlium (I used it on the sink, tile walls, tub, and shower walls which took me 3 boxes (2 coats on everything) and nothing to spare at the end)= about 60 dollars. -New roller and rolls (habitat for humanity restore)= 8 dollars. -Used old paint brushes-next time would buy new one just for this so I've added it= 8 dollars. -I used an aluminum 'lasagna' tray for holding the paint-I buy in bulk at costco so one= 1 dollar? -Lime Away= 10 dollars from Lowes. -Tack cloths= 2 dollars from Lowes (one set of cloths is all you should need). -New door handles= 8 dollars from Lowes. -White trim paint for door (already had it from previous projects). -Gray paint for walls (already had it from previous projects). -Stick down linoleum tiles from Lowes= 35 dollars. -New curtain rod and hooks= 18 dollars from Lowes. -New shower head and hose from Amazon with chromeo therapy (light) features=about 27 dollars total. -New sink faucet= 35 dollars at Lowes. -New shower curtain= Amazon for about 20 dollars-super neat curtain highly recommended. Project total time while working full time job= 1 week. Total Cost= approx 232 dollars...the finished look...priceless!"

Find Best Price at Amazon"I've used it to fix a number of children's toys that superglue wouldn't hold. It also was great for little building projects with my son - we used toothpicks and if you can hold them together for 4 seconds they stay, so he built a mini Eiffel tower (with my help)."
"The instructions tell you that Bondic dries by using the attached UV light, which hardens the substance in seconds. Unlike clue that starts to harden as soon as it is in the air, this product waits for you to determine that you've been things back together exactly as you want them."
"We buy and sell stuff online and we run into all kinds of things that need repairs. This doesn't work that well on hard plastic items (like if a plastic tab pops off the back of the remote control or something small like that--it doesn't work well because you can't sand it well). I've filled in holes in plastic...wood...ceramic...all kinds of little flaws and I'm STILL on my FIRST original tube of glue!"
"With straight bonding it did not work to hold the metal loop piece onto the fob, it separated when trying to put a key ring on the fob."
"Only thing I don't like is, the tip on the pen leaks when the cap isn't on and you end up wasting alot of product!"
"several attempts to glue it failed, but one try with Bondic, and my son now accidentally sent it down a half flight of wooden stairs with no problem."
"Fixing exposed cable wire great use, fixing hole in object you can build up plastic in layers as long as you can apply the light to the hole your trying to repair."
"The concept is great but the application has to be on the surface and not in the break itself so, first.. it will always be visible and unless you try to rough up both parts you are trying to join the connection is extremely week... it will hold if you do nothing with it."

"I wish it unrolled top up and had printed grid lines on it like some wrapping paper."
"Worked as expected, but the material tears very easily and some of the plastic for ad hearing to each other was too small to have any effect."
"Ive been replacing some nasty carpet with 12mm laminate and this underlayment is better than the stuff I was paying $0.60 per square foot for from a major flooring store (so $60 per 100 square feet)."
"Makes floor feel like it is padded...people have made multiple comments complementing the floor and how soft it is."

"Will see how they do come Winter when the sun is lower on the horizon throughout the day but I'm pretty confident (have these on the South facing side of the home)."
"I'll have to say out of the box these lights were a little smaller than I expected, but the fact that they stay charged through the night-even though I live in the sate of Washington-where it is constantly raining-and there can sometimes be very few days without clouds-totally makes these lights worth getting."
"I plan on purchasing more of these to replace the hard wired motion detectors that are impossible to adjust so that they don't stay on forever."
"Since then, they have been: Through Hurricane Irma. Through the longest night of the year (longest run time and least recharging time). They work perfectly, and sustained no damage from Irma."

The bolts included for attaching the hangers to the door support a thickness range of 1 1/4" to 1 3/4", but this can be easily navigated by countersinking the bolt head into the back side of the door, or by picking up 4 longer bolts from your local hardware store. If your answer was negative, then that number is the extra spacing you need. A: You will need a minimum of 6" from the top of your door to the ceiling (or crown moulding, if any) for this kit to fit correctly.
