Looking to use this on the exterior of my car at highway speeds, has anyone else done this? If so, did it go well?

Delkin Devices Fat Gecko Dual-Suction Camera Mount is designed for what you want and will hold an even bigger/heavier camera than the GoPro. It sells for about $44 (B&H; Photo Video store)

We did that already with the mount placed on the hood between Chicago and Toronto, hot weather, sunny day. It went pretty well. I suggest you tie the device to your car with a tiny string, like a shoelace, for example, just in case. I used one of the windshield wiper base to attach the cord. Have fun and good luck.

I put this on the side of my r6 fairing and it stayed attached fine at speeds around 75-80. I would recommend using a small tether of some sort just in case.

Yes. That's what the mount is designed for. I've had it on the front bumper, rear bumper, door, window, and fender at ~130 mph, stable and solid. Pilots have reported using it on a plane at over 300 mph.

I did just that this weekend. I put two thick coats of HNR then used dynamat extreme and it stuck very well. The only advice I could give is... make sure the surface is painted before applying HNR. You will see rust bleed through the next day if you don't. Happy sound deadening!

Personally, I wouldn't use it on *anything,* as my review indicates. I did put it on my headlights, but like everywhere else, it was cloudy and looked lousy. Can't say how it holds up, because I scraped it off bit by bit.

No, it is great for reinforcing round items but it is more like the stuff to make a cast for a leg where it has to bond to itself. I don't think it would stick to car paint. Better to stick with J&B; weld or some other high quality epoxy and back it up with something that will project into the epoxy and the metal on the other side.

Yes, you have to make sure you install it as tight as possible. I drive the highway too, at speeds between 30 and 45 without issues, but there is quite a bit of wind resistance. The windshield holds up fine and stays tight.

Yes, I would highly recommend using it in the windscreen, too. You'll be amazed by the clarity of the windscreen afterwards!

yes, it's designed to do that. when using, it almost appears not to be moving at all; however, it is doing it's job. If you are not getting results you want, try a more aggressive grit. I've had to go as high as 240 grit on badly pitted headlights.

I have and it worked great..even did some heavy mesh on it making something for my uncle. It was to put on his car behind his motor home so rocks wouldn't hit his car.

Yeah, I did on some of my interior trim and it worked great. Just do it in low humidity, use the second buff pad, and give it time to dry before touching it. If interior is all you need though, I used some cheap vinyl polish/protectant and that works really well for me on my interior surfaces as well. This stuff does wonders for my exterior vinyl though. I used it once a year ago and it still looks great after going through car washes and mag chloride.

I used a roller and paint brush to apply this to my jeep. I did this in two coats and it has worked extremly well. Allow at least an hour hour between coats.

I actually used it on a model car, but have no idea how it would work if exposed to weather, etc. Sorry...

I put mine on with 3m double sided tape. Took the original off, cleaned the site real well with 90% isopropyl alcohol, dried it and let it air dry, applied the tape when it was warm and it held up just fine in wet, cold, and hot weather. Also looks awesome. Got many questions regarding who makes the car, what kind of car it is.....

It has done a nice job at highway speeds, although I had a 40 mph head wind once and I had to do a little work on it. I no longer use it because I have a 5th wheel

to be honest, depending on what your bumper surface is like, you'll probably have fair to poor results, this stuff worked wonders when I used it to apply stickers to my windshield (ex. parking stickers) with static and no adhesive (I hate the idea of that residue being there permanently when that sticker expires), but the bumper isn't like glass so I think with that application wouldn't be the best choice

i am not sure... maybe call the company? i have only used on exterior and its fantastic... but it may be fine... i just would not recommend it without knowing `100% that it was safe... i was just told that some car products can cause cracking of leather on say a dash... so be careful and check with someone in the know... but i will say its great on the outside of a car!!!

I used 3m High Bond double sided tape and it has been on for a long time. No problems. Make sure you use the HB tape. It is a little expensive, but has a lot of uses. A good investment for the house or the car.
