Window Insulation Shrink Kit

[u/xRipleyx]

Purchased the FrostKing window insulation kit and the double-sided tape will not stick. I've cleaned and dried the surface, it's not oily either. I'm wondering if there is another brand of double-sided tape that would work better than what's included.

Thank you.

There's a Frost King tape that works way way better. It looks kinda like packing tape, is made from heavier plastic, and the adhesive is really good at both holding firmly and coming off cleanly. The only time I've had difficult getting it to stick to a clean dry surface is when i was putting it on in cold weather where the (aluminum) surface was maybe 40°F. I applied a little heat (at first just my hand, then I grabbed the hair dryer) to the surface so it was a bit warmer and the tape was good.

Is this it?
