Yes it is. I just finished a set of foam and seat covers on bare frames for a Triumph TR6 car. Worked excellent. Drying time was perfect. Adhesion was great.

This is the recommended product for adhering car hood insulation. . . however the instructions clearly state to use in temps 65 or above. I used it on a 66 degree environment and the product DID NOT adhere the insulation to my old Benz car hood (despite the fact that I spent several hours on prep work) . A very frustrating experience, more so when getting through to 3M for my issue proved impossible. I now have an empty can of failure, and am in for a big delay, until temps get to 65 degrees again. I know 3M is better than this product proved to be. VERY DISAPPOINTED!

Spray and press. I used it for the carpet to metal in my Volkswagen. It was fast and easy to use. And it’s still holding up.

I could not believe how accurate the spay nozzle was! I used it to put a new hood insulation blanket on my 2000 sl500 benz.I had the car covered in cloth but really didn't need to.The spray was so precise that there was no overspray.Pricey but well worth it in the end.

This is the quality brand to buy in my opinion. This spray needs to be used in a well ventilated area like your garage with the door open or even outside. The fumes are very strong, but this spray really sticks. I use it for quilt backs to batting and then to the front which is much easier than crawling around on the floor. You can adhere things for upholstery also. A good product that works.

I’ve used this 3 M products for 30+ years. It does the job but not as easy as it did with the formula 30+ years ago. I’ve tried other products and this current formula is still the best on the market. Just remember to let it soak on the surface you are spraying a little longer than what you might have in the past.

It did what they advertised; I was able to reattach some fabric to my driver side door panel.I found it easy to modulate the flow of the output, and the fan nozzle gave an expected and precise pattern.Didn't need much to finish the job. I hope this thing stores well as I probably wont need the rest for 5 more years at least.I used a different brand in the past that was , for lack of a better word, wetter. It soaked through the fabric. This one is sort of light and foamy so it stayed on the side I wanted it on without leaching through.So far my repair is holding up.

I purchased this product after calling 3M to ask what the best product would be to glue the vinyl sides onto the doors of my car. This definitely did the trick. Spraying the glue onto foam made it easy to do as I didn't have to spread the glue and disrupt the dried foam. The spray of glue comes out fan shaped, so it doesn't spray all over and is easy to direct where you want it. It gets tacky enough to stick, but leaves you enough time to work with your materials to get them into place. It did soften the vinyl and make it a bit stretchy, so I was careful when pushing it into place not to stretch it more. After it all dried, the vinyl tightened up nicely and stayed in place. I am now waiting for the really hot weather to see that it holds up through that. All in all, this is a great product. I was very pleased.Follow-up Post: 6 months later, after going through the hot weather, the vinyl peeled right off the door!
