Issue with Beatsonic Sharkfin (loose after application 2 months out)
 
I was washing my car today when i noticed the back end of the Beatsonic sharkfin was loose. no effing way i thought...the area was washed, cleaned with alcohol, cleaning wipe used, laser lined and applied with pressure for the minute required (OCD much?).

The back end lifts ever so slightly and i look to see the adhesive still applied to the car, but the part attached to the sharkfin has separated.

Anyone have similar experiences? solutions?

THanks

Happening to me now, can we just change the existing tape and put 3m or something?

Mine is loose too. I'm going to try again but with adhesive promoter.
