can't make my Gel badge stick to my glovebox handle, tried 3M spray adhesive but not strong enough, any other better spray adhesives that won't mark the plastic handle ? Double sided sticky tape perhaps ?

double sided carpet tape won't work, fell off next morning, just trying two layers of the stuff now. Just won't stick to plastic.

it's certainly stick stuff, just not good on shiny smooth plastic that is the glovebox handle, of which I don't want to sand to rough up, will see in morning if it drops off again, not sure if there are higher adhesives tapes, I just got a small roll of cheapish stuff, "supaDec" made by Supabrands I think.

If you plan on keepin the badge on. then sandpaper the handle a little to create a rough texture then the adhesive should work fella
