Reflective Tape Recommendations ?

[Kid9P]

So I acquired this old fluorescent green Surefire G3 body.

I would love to add some reflective tape to it.
These models use to include a sheet of reflective stickers, but they are
no longer available.

Can anyone recommend a very reflective white tape that would stand
the test of time? Preferably thin strips that I could also cut to size. Thanks.

I would look and see what 3M has to offer. Maybe swing by a truck stop.

3M Diamond grade is used on emergency vehicles and is available in several colours, which are easily cut to size on a guillotine etc.

Those flashlights came with a sheet of pre-cut 3M reflective tape that fit into the body, around tailcap and head..
Try contacting SF for spares sheets?

Wal Mart has rolls of 3M type Dave D mentioned in post #3.

I bought some retroreflective tape for my bicycle from these guys:

Reflective Tapes for Transportation, Mining, Manufacturing & Industrial Safety

All Kinds of Reflective Tape, Photoluminescent Tape, Colored Floor Marking Tape

www.identi-tape.com

and they have lots of this stuff if you want to see what's available. I think I tried to get the strongest adhesive, and 10 years later the Oralite-Reflexite has held up pretty well in all-weather use, although the material can crack and chip on the edges when flexed repeatedly (plastic fenders).

It may be easier as suggested to ask Surefire or go to a local store/auto supply and see what they have.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up!

Thanks Dave, that sounds perfect.

SOLAS (safety of life at sea) is the best, love it.

Consider glow in the dark adhesive tape. Reflective tape requires light to be shined on it, preferably just about directly from the eyes that want to see it. GITD tape will be seen in the dark from all angles the tape is exposed.
I have the County Comm tape and it is long lasting.

That is one nice green Surefire body!
