underbelly repair
Will Gorilla tape work on the plastic under belly? I have to cut it to access the plumbing and need to know what works for tape
Forum Discussion
- This is what you want. It sticks perfect on the underbelly.
https://www.amazon.com/Surface-Shields-BP4180-Shield-Repair/dp/B002SSGAZG - The OP is talking about the black woven tarp like moisture barrier that is used to cover the entire under belly of most 3 season trailers.
- Eternabond or Flex Seal tape both work exceptionally well on coroplast.
- I have had limited to decent results with the gorilla.
However the only way to get a good stick is clean the underbelly area good with something like alcohol or lacquer thinner. Put the tape on and then follow up with the DW's hair drier for the final stick. - How about GAFFER'S TAPE?

If you mean the tape for designed for use on rodent barrier, it's terrible. It will fall off in short order and doesn't stick worth a krap. Companies that do that kind of work use patches made of the rodent barrier and stick it down with 3M aerosol adhesive.
Sorry but the tape is useless.- Go to a mobile home dealer ask for a roll of belly tape its about 25.00 and once stuck it won't come off

If you want something that will last forever under any conditions, get a roll of High Temperature Flue Tape. It's the silver colored tape that is used on aluminum vents for furnaces and gas water heaters. The stuff so so strong, it will never give, under any conditions. Caution... you have only 1 chance to stick it on and it cannot be redone. So get it right the first time. Extremely strong stuff and extremely resilient to all kinds of weather conditions.
That's what I use Dutchman Sport is correct- Moved to Tech Issues forum from DIY.
