I am changing the LCD screen to a Motorola Razr phone; the screen body has a couple flexible PCB's held in place by some kind of adhesive. Anyone knows what adhesive is this and where can I find it?

Thanks!!

    It's just the standard double sided tape that can be found at any hardware store (it's very thin and white). They usually sell them in a sheet of small squares that can be trimmed to size. The last sheet I purchased was about 1.49. Just make sure you don't get the heavy duty stick or it will probably break the PCB if you try to pull it apart.

    I have yet to find anything thinner than 1/16th in a hardware store. I had to get 1/32nd thick stuff directly from 3M.

    The HW store down the street from me has them 1/32 to 1/8 and from barely sticky to incredibly sticky. It's an older HW store, so they have lots of stuff not found in the chain stores.
