How Pressure Actually Bonds VHB Tape
Most people think mounting tape is peel, stick, press, done — but the bond is actually made in the press, and almost nobody talks about it. This episode digs into what pressure-sensitive adhesive is doing at the microscopic level, why 3M's fifteen psi bond-line target is not the same as fifteen pounds of roll-down force, and how pressure distributes unevenly across a real panel — corners included. Then it comes back down to earth: what any of this means when you're standing on a chair with a J-roller and a whiteboard.
