Designed for Attaching a Range of Trim and Components to Rigid Clear Coat Systems
Developed specifically for attaching exterior trim and other parts to automotive clear coat systems, 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5314 (PDF, 174 Kb) features a gray, .76 mm acrylic foam core with two different adhesives. The liner-side adhesive is formulated for very high initial and final adhesion to rigid clear coat paint systems. The non-liner-side adhesive is excellent for bonding to automotive trim and other components. The viscoelastic foam core conforms well even to complex geometries. It is engineered for stress relaxation when exposed to high stress loads, and maintains bond-line aesthetics under normal stress loads. The gray color of 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5314 gives a pleasing bond line aesthetic. A red, 3M branded liner provides easy one-piece release for efficient application.

Confidence in Your Purchase
The 3M branded liner (PDF, 147.5 Kb) features a subtle 3M logo marking to provide evidence to the customer that they are receiving the 3M quality they expect from their purchase. The liner makes 3M tapes easy to identify and difficult to imitate. The proprietary branding technology is designed to help identification of 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape.

3M recommends the use of 3M™ Adhesion Promoter for tape-to-part adhesion with 3M™ Acrylic Foam Tape 5314 on all parts, especially plastics such as RIM, TPO, PPO, PP and PC.
