i use the lee martin stuff... though it is just 3M mirror tape and you can buy it from B&Q for half the price

car trim tape, works really well, basically the same tape as you get in halfords for numberplates but on a bigger reel..

Gel tape as the others, sticks well and peels off in one piece when needed to

As Mark said but Losi stuff is excellent and doesn't leave a mess.

Halfords sell a black tape roll with green backing for a small amount of money and does the job really well.

As Fidspeed, I get the vhb acrylic gel tape from here: -

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Double-Sided-VHB-Acrylic-Gel-Tape-19mm-x-5mtr-Strong-Adhesive-Hi-bond-Clear-/170907252996?pt=UK_Crafts_Cardmaking_Scrapbooking_ Glue_Tape_EH&hash=item27caddb904

Great adhesive and isolating properties, comes in various widths, comes away cleanly and easily only when required.

The seller is also open to best offers too, so you can grab a bargain :woot:

Same here. It's very good.

But the best stuff I've ever used was called DEAD MANS GRIP
Almost permanent it is that good!

The 3M stuff is also sold by Tuning Haus but at far less money than other brands who sell the same thing. Ultra sticky, sticks straight away and peels off in one easy piece too...

The Parma gel type stuff is also very good but takes longer for the glue to set/go off

Just get the vhb from eBay or Amazon.
About a third the price of the repackaged stuff with an rc brands label

The vhb gel tape is magic, hours of my life saved trying to remove the residue left by normal ds tapes.
