Default Sticky Situation

I bought a flush mount fuel cap kit from a member. One of the rings is suppose to have adhesive like you get with the chrome stick ons and what not. Does anyone have a brand they buy or bought that is similar? I have some 3M 2 sided tape but it doesn't seem to be very sticky. and I don't wan't to lose this ring. If anyone has bought a roll and have some left, i would be most grateful to have some, I can pay for shipping. Help a brother out,, thanks. The ring is like 4" diameter so I need enough to go around it.

3M makes a good double sided tape. They have different adhesive strengths, just get the one you want.

When I bought my first used bike, the ring around the flush gas cap kept peeling up, even after putting new 3M tape under it. I just put 4 drops of Gorilla glue (12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock) and never had a problem after that.

I bought the 3 M tape from Autozone. Has red outer plastic peel covering. 1/4" worked like a champ. thanks for the replies.
