Re: cab band

My dad does auto accessories for dealerships for a living, and I can give you a few small tips if you use 3m tape.

make sure you clean the surface area with a cleaner that will strip any polish or wax.

on the cab, lay a stripe with masking tape right above where you are going to adhere the molding. that way you can step back and look at it and make sure its straight. and then use it as a guide when laying the molding.

do it in the sun with a warm surface.

and last, if you research a little, there are chemicals you can apply to your paint that will multiply the adhesive by up to 200% my dad uses it all the time!

hope any of this helps!
