Post by: Tex on April 12, 2014, 03:34:34 PM
Just got my 3M tape last night that I ordered. Black reflective.  This stuff is great.

Well, what are they going to think of next? So, the tape is black until light hits it.... Pretty cool stuff...

Thanks Scott, I didn't know that stuff existed. BTW, nice luggage system :good2:

Thank you Pat I just picked up the Givi Topcase its the B33 I love it. Fits my helmet when I Park her and a lot of other things when I'm out riding. the side cases and rack came with her when I purchased.

Billy Here is a picture. I got it on amazon. It is also called Scotchlite. Just make sure the product number is 79922. You have to peal the backing off and once its applies there is a clear film on the front you need to peal off. Many people don't realize this so they wonder why its not reflective.

Thanks for sharing, incredible product. I wonder if you shoot a clear urethane over it will it retain its luminescence?

Not really sure on that. I would like to know how they make it. When you peel it off from the backing the back side of the tape is reflective silver. Cool stuff.  :good2:

Same stuff is used on semi trailers in the alternating silver/white and red pattern that you oft see.  Great stuff.
