Are you using the 3M VHB 1/2" film attachment tape in conjunction with the 3M VHB foam tape on your Tedlar ? What do you plan to use as your 2"-3" finishing/capping tape ? Hopefully you do not plan to use aluminum foil tape ALONE as your seam/capping tape. Doing this would be I'll advised. Usage of aluminum foil tape as capping tape may work fine initially but will eventually become complete mess and dangerous. Foil tape was only suggested as a UV barrier to protect the original capping tape and not as a replacement. A good Tedlar covering job is said to last 15 years or more when done properly and with the correct materials.

Im using the 3M 4950 VHB foam tape and the F9469PC VHB 3/4 & 1/2 inch versions.

For the 2" tape Im using the 2" clear supplied by Naggy and in low stress areas a 2" Poly Patch greenhouse repair tape that has awesome UV resistance.

I also got some 3M Polyester Film Tape 850 Silver, 2 in which is an aluminized film to protect the other tapes from UV only and matches the aluminum wing skin perfectly.

No foil file for attachment of film anywhere....I totally agree!
