Tiger seal.  :y.............as long as you don't intend removing it again.  ;)

I expect it will need to come off again.

Isn't a Tiger seal a large lump of blubber that lies on the beach all day?

I don't think you should write about TB like that :o

An hour in the sack with the girl of his dreams (Shami. C) would remedy that. :)

300 calories a time. Six times a day. :)

The jaguar forum suggest Evostick.

It's stringy as f*uck but you can get it off again.
Yep, that would fit the bill.

It'd be 350 calories. She'd have to catch him first. ;D

Don't think I'd want to put heat anywhere near the front end of my jag.  :o

It doesn't need heat (Nor does Tiger seal). It needs a thin / sharp implement, like a wallpaper scraper tapping along the join to cut through it.
An omega boot spoiler takes about 15 minutes to remove by this method.  ;)

Tiger Seal has been mentioned on the Jaguar forum also. ....along with Sikaflex. They say it will be a bastard to remove the trim again once this stuff has 'welded' the splitter to the bumper.

Some suggest 3M VBH double sided tape.

Evostick still sounds best to me. And you can get off your head while doing it.

Gripfill is good, flexible and cheap.  :y

You can get off your head on that too!  ;D

I can certainly tell you that 3M trim tape sticks like sh*t to a blanket.

Not that I'd know about the latter.

Not so easy to remove again though? Most things in our house have gripfill in their makeup somewhere down the line. It’s particularly good for attaching skirting board  :y

Opti, just to throw another idea in, double sided glazing tape, it’s a bit like those sticky numberplate pads but comes on a roll. Also cheap and sticks like, um, well as above.

Comes off without too much of a fight too. You can cut it in half with a knife then peel each side off separately.

I've only ever known the numberplate stuff to come on a roll, never knew it was available as pads.

A certain Scouser might be able to answer that. :)
