if you used double-sided tape to make this stay up, what kind worked best for you?

I didn't use tape. Did an evening wedding in backyard, bought white vintage light fixtures of various size and shape, putting lights underneath opening. Pretty awesome.

3M double sided and followed 3M directions to the letter. Cleaned and dried the surface where I wanted to install the lights.. Cleaned back of light assembly with rubbing alcohol.I live where the humidity stays around 70% or higher.

We used the included Velcro pads and they worked very well. It allows us to remove them and/or to change the batteries easily.

Experiment with just the plastic, try different tape at only one side, both sides, none at corners. Plastic and metal may not mix well, but seems like a very good idea.

Double sided tape is fine, I used Velcro in case the need arises to change it out.

Yes get good double sided tape. Or wood glue. But if you think you might want to take them apart later go with the tape.

I wouldn't use the double-sided tape on carpet. It would probably cause damage. You could try looping masking tape to apply it to your floor, but if kids are running all over it it probably wouldn't last long.

I used duct tape for mine. You just have to be careful at the top if the roll overlaps, you will still need enough room for you j-hook liner if that is the one you are using. I have one section that is very tight because the roll overlapped and with the duct tape i barely had enough room for the liner hook.

I used tape...but it all depends on what you are using in for. I cut it up and wrapped boxes to make a fireplace.

I used 3m double sided tape. You can also use a small screw as there is a mounting hole on the back of the unit.

You need to go to Lowes or something similar and get a thick double sided tape.

It comes with a small roll of paper tape but any regular tape should work. I use 2.25" wide.

I used permanent carpet tape. However, that is if you don't care about the surface underneath.

I used double sided tape from auto store the kind they use to hold on emblem to your car very strong hold well

I don't think double-sided tape would be strong enough to hold the guide in place. Maybe plastic cable/zip ties instead of hose clamps? I used two hose clamps to hold the guide in place on a 1-inch stainless steel boat railing...worked very well for me. Good luck!

I had that same problem. It comes with double sided adhesive tape which is what I used. It has been holding strong for more than a solid month now.

Are you referring to the included 3M double sided tape? Any double sided tape should do.If you're referring to the sticky pad at the bottom, just rinse it under water and after it dries, it will be sticky again. Let it air dry as any lint or dust will make it loose its adhesive properties.

Sticky self-adhesive Velcro. Doesn't work very well. As some other reviewers have suggested, getting a grommet kit and a couple of small bungees to hold the sides up as a DIY fix is probably the best option.

I ended up putting it in a thick frame for the short time I had it, but I'm sure double stick foam tape would work too.
