Is there a 1/2 - 1" tape someone can recommend that will stick to multiple surfaces and humidities?
Installing signs onto Painted Cynder Block walls (interior)in a "pool area" (humid).
We would also like the same tape for backing dimensional Gemini Letters (1/4 - 1/2" thick). I am thinking it should have some "gerth" to it like foam tape) but, leaving me with the piece of mind that it will still stick after I have left teh job site. Yess, we include silicone installing but, are having problems in the pool area.

Keep your eyes open too, Corey to make sure it says 'silicone adhesive' and not 'silicone sealer'. There is a difference.

I would not use foam tape. As Stein said, 3M VHB!

I have found and purchased foam and many other types of tape from ....

http://www.findtape.com/

And they do carry the automotive two-sided foam tape...keep in mind that it is designed to work best on a smooth surface....but it does stick really well.

Another vote for 3M VHB. You can get it from Canadian Signcrafter Supply.
