What is double sided adhesive and its uses?
As the name suggests, double-sided tape has both sticky sides, instead of just one side. This adhesive tape has become essential in decoration and DIY works (such as fixing mirrors, paintings, carpets, decorative items, etc.).
Model makers, on the other hand, often use double-sided tape to assemble models made of cardboard, plastic, or other lightweight materials. And also in gluing documents together, and attaching notes to boards and other office keys.
In some cases it can be used to temporarily secure light objects inside vehicles. There are those who use double-sided adhesive to install cables, electrical components, and automotive components in temporary installations.
