Had to pull the Tech Specs off the tank because some dirt had gotten underneath and undermined the adhesion. So I peeled them off and used a head gun to soften and remove the remaining adhesive from the back of the pad. The tank is clean and ready for reinstallation.

So now I need to figure out what to use to adhere the pad to the tank. My buddy gave me a can of DAP Weldwood Contact Cement (https://www.dap.com/products-projec...dhesives/contact-cement/weldwood-contact-cem/) but I think that is overkill. I'd rather use a double-sided tape of some sorts.

Also, it would be ideal if I could get the replacement in an 8.5" x 11" sheet as that would let me to make the backing 1 piece. Not a deal breaker if I need to make it in 2 parts.....

Anyone out there ever reattach a tank pad?
