It works great

this stuff is GREAT. Not one light fell. I was doubtful it would stick to stucco with all its bumps and irregular surfaces. I applied a top and bottom piece about 1.5" long and it's held up great. The sprinklers soak these lights every morning and they are still up. I highly recommend instead of drilling holes. I'm not sure how much weight the tape holds so I wouldn't recommend anything too heavy.

This stuff is no joke.

I got this tape just shy of a month ago to mount a plug strip and a USB hub to my wall next to my bed. In case you were curious, it sticks very well to plastic and to painted drywall.. I honestly don't think either will ever come off. They both feel like they're bolted down. They don't move the slightest bit. It's working great and holding up to pressure of cables being plugged and unplugged regularly. I almost wish I had more things to hang, I just hope I never have to remove them.

Mounting Tape Is Made By Thor Himself
by Karanta (5 out of 5 stars)

Scotch mounting tape is the best adhesive agent hands down that sticks to anything I put it on. How have I gone 30 years without really knowing about this mounting tape until recently. All of the drilling I had to do on the exterior of my houses, putting holes in the brick/stucco which took away from the overall appearance of my house. I could have avoided drilling into my bricks completely if I had known about this mounting tape. Once I have it set on the bricks with the object attached, it would literally take an act of God to remove this mounting tape. Heavy rain falls, hurricanes and extreme cold doesn't even affect this tape. My outside solar lights are exactly in the same position I originally put them in.

I haven't tried removing this mounting tape from my solar lights yet so I have no idea how tricky it is to remove. I know the time will come my solar lights batteries will start to die out & I then can review how easy or hard it is to remove.

Strong adherence on vinyl siding, 1" width is ideal
by MargaretNC (5 out of 5 stars)
December 20, 2016

Scotch Exterior Mounting Tape was advertised as a Frequently-Bought-Together item with a pair of solar security motion sensor lights I recently ordered. I ordered the tape on faith, but was skeptical that it could adhere well outside. I was wrong--this tape adheres like a barnacle even in 40-degree, slightly humid weather today. The pictures show how two 2-1/2" strips of the tape hold a camera on vinyl siding above my back porch door. The beefy 1" width of the tape is just right to catch two slats of the siding securely. You can count on this tape where it really matters.

Perfect for me!

This product was EXACTLY what I had been looking for. I wanted to avoid putting many holes in my stucco and this tape did the trick. The picture shows 3 metal expressions I bought, but couldn't figure out how to hang them. I cut small pieces of tape and put it on several places . I even had to reposition one word, but was able to get it off the wall, and re hung it. (Using new tape). The old tape did come off the stucco, but with effort.

Excellent tape to keep around the house
by Matthew Becker (5 out of 5 stars)

I was surprised by the lack of information about the tape on Amazon's listing. For more information about the tape than you care to know, search for "3m 4011 datasheet" - 3M has one that talks about it's construction, adhesive tests, and bondline elongation results among other things. As far as load goes, the packaging recommends 4 inches of tape for every pound it's supposed to hold and can be used to mount up to a total of 5 pounds. The packaging also warns that the tape "may cause damage if removed" and "if you must remove the mounted object, insert a knife behind [it] and carefully cut the tape between the adhesive surfaces".

The tape is 0.045 inches thick (almost 1 mm), so depending on what you use it for, there may be a bulge. It is kind of a pain to remove the red protective layer, so if you need to fit it in a tight spot, peel of a corner first before placing it.

I've used this tape a few times and have been very pleased with it. I've used to attach a Oxo SteeL Kitchen Tool and Utensil Rack to a metal backsplash (where I couldn't screw into it) and I've also used it to mount surge protectors to the underside of desks to move it out of the way. I'm sure there are hundreds of other good uses for it, so I plan to keep a roll of it around the house. It's almost as useful as super glue, just less permanent and it isn't as much of a pain to clean up.

UPDATE (7/13/2011): I've been using this to mount the tool rack for over six months now. It does work, however the load I'm putting on it is too high and it causes the tape to creep. After about 3-4 weeks it sags enough to drop the untensils. I'm not going to dock a star because I knew I'm exceeding the load (I have several pounds on a square inch.).

I've recently discovered 3M's 4929 Very High Bond Tape. This stuff is ridiculously strong (110 psi shear). I've used it at work in high stress environments at low temperatures (-20C) and it didn't budge. This tape is (currently) not on Amazon and has to be ordered through an industrial supply company like McMaster-Carr ($20 a roll). I think I'm going to try replacing the 3M 4011 tape with this and see if it does any better.

SOME PRODUCTS ARE GREAT. THIS IS ONE OF THEM

Scotch 3M Permanent Outdoor Mounting Tape, Holds Up to 5 lbs. (#4011)
I love this stuff, and use it a lot. And one reason why is because it us NOT permanent! At least not where I've been using it, mostly on clean, smooth surfaces like glass, metal, polished wood, and plastic. It might be a PIA to removed from a painted wall, and it probably doesn't stick well to moist, rough surfaces. I don't know because I don't use tape for that. See, I know how to use items called tacks, staples, and nails.
I cut some of this tape into little 1/4 and 1/2 in. squares for my wife, storing them on a small sheet of waxed paper so they're easy to remove. She uses them for sticking up little knick-knacks all over the house.
I love magnets. Not the cheap and weak ceramic pieces, the really powerful neodymium kind (you didn't think I could spell that, did ya'?). I know they cost more, but they only lose 5% of their strength every 500 years, so you'll be really old when they get weak.
Magnets make great temporary mounts, but they need help when it comes to glass, wood, plastic, some metals (aluminum, copper, some stainless steel, etc.), and kids. And I get that help from 3M 4011 tape!
This tape is not very friendly when you try to remove the red plastic backing, but that's the price we pay for the remarkable adhesive that adheres amazingly well, yet remains reasonably easy to remove from smooth surfaces like glass, polished wood...
I ride motorcycles, and I like tank bags for storage you can easily reach without dismounting. You can use mounting straps, but I prefer magnets for easy placement and removal. Since two of my bikes have steel tanks, I was able to use the same tank bag on both. The Yamaha FZ-07, however, has plastic covers over the gas tank, so a magnetic tank bag won't work. Or will it?
I could have taped steel washers to the plastic, for the magnets in the tank bag. Highly polished magnets, though, were less unsightly, and increased the holding power of the tank bag magnets. Now I can use the same tank bag and its contents on all three bikes!
I also use this tape to replace weaker two-sided tapes, such as windshield mounts that frequently come loose.
By the way, this stuff comes in really handy when you want to prank someone. I once got my wife really good when I taped her...
The scar on my forehead is barely noticeable now.

LOVE THIS!

SUPER STICKY! I wanted to hang these small security lights outside of my house. I didn't want to drill and do all the nonsense that takes forever! I bought this exterior mounting tape which came in 2 days. I ripped off a small piece and stuck it to the back of the light. I pushed the light against the wall AND? The light is going NO WHERE! It's been raining and hot and cold etc. But the tape is holding up just fine! I love it!

Highly recommend!
