I'm surprised nobody responded to this yet. Any suggestions?

 

It was answered here.

 

that tape is pretty good so long as it is applied to a very clean and smooth surface. Did it come with a 'prep wipe'? If not I'd clean the area well with regular wash, then rub down with alcohol unless you have a friend who has some of this:



but you mentioned cracking and paint bubbles so I'd sand to get all loose paint off, then smooth with 600 grit ... then clean. And I'd consider a lil superglue on the crack ... smoothing any residue here as well ...

 

Sorry, what I meant to ask was if the double-sided tape was enough to keep it from flying off.

Should i remove the paint off the old scoop too?

 

if the paint is "strong" it is fine to tape to it

but if the paint is lifting .....

 

OK, I just finished placing it. I pushed down as hard as i could and held down for at least 7 minutes.

Take a look at the pics and let me know what you think.

 

It looks nice. Good Job...

 

Looks good.
