thin strong double side tape.....?

Does anyone know where to buy or the name of a good strong double sided tape? I'm looking for the gray colored very thin (like thickness of a business card) type. Mostly everything I come across is foam type that can be compressed when you push it. Which makes things look terrible if you're trying for a more flush mount look.


My Greddy Turbo Timer came with a nice piece of this stuff to mount the TT, for comparison to what I'm looking for.

Google 3M double-sided film tape.

They are as thin as your typical scotch tape but glue on both sides. I use them for various computer/electronic applications and work very well.

I've used this stuff on a lot of things. It's incredibly strong. Maybe the thickness of two credit cards.

The 160 held my euro tag to the front my car for 3 years before I had to remove it to sell the car.

Yeah the 3M automotive double-sided tape (its gray). You can find it in Walmart, or advance auto parts. Used it on my wing.
