What is double‑sided tape used for?
It’s a clean, invisible way to bond two surfaces — ideal for signage, displays, light assembly and packaging where visible fixings aren’t desired.
Is double‑sided tape permanent or removable?
Rubber adhesive tapes are typically removable and great for quick jobs. Acrylic and foam versions deliver stronger, longer‑term bonds and higher temperature/UV resistance.
Does double‑sided tape work on cardboard?
Yes — rubber adhesive options like Kikusui 185 bond quickly to cardboard. For heavy or long‑term holds, consider acrylic or foam tapes.
