I've used it the stuff didn't hold up. There is 3M double sided tape that is very thin and clear not sure where to buy it. There is liquid emblem adhesive but some say it harms the clear coat.

The one I used was gray and on a red vinyl it was great, never had a problem with keeping my Sportdesign emblems on
