It's been about 7-8 years since i installed my rear window louvers and I just had to replace 2 of the 6 brackets. I used the same automotive solvent as before and the garage is 72 degrees F., 55 % humidity. IIRC, cure time is 24 hours with no vehicle motion or exposure to temperature and humidity extremes. Did I miss anything? If I need to, I can drop the humidity.

 

Depends, what exactly did you use?

or....?

here's the FAQ for the 3M stuff - scroll down to the 'Performance' section

and the technical data sheets for them:

Looks like 72 hours at 72F (22C) is optimal for most of them. Humidity isn't mentioned.

 

The tape is whatever the louver manufacturer provides on his brackets; one side already adhered to the bracket and the other side has a red backing to be peeled upon application.

I can do 72 hours no problem. She's a garage queen and not a dd.

 

double sided tapes usually use a Pressure sensitive adhesive which don't have a defined cure time.

 

Well, cure time is a moot point now. The car is staying put in the garage while I'm out of town the next few days. It'll be nice to have the louvers back on. She felt naked.
