Re: Storage bay LED lights

Larry,
I used the non-weatherproof strips in my bay lights. I figure it's highly unlikely they would get wet. I did nothing to the aluminum before sticking on the strips. Following Roger's advice, I did not trust the adhesive on the back of the strips. I used the double sided foam tape - stuck it to the aluminum channel, then stuck the LED strip to the foam tape. Have not had any of them come loose yet, and the storage bays on our coach see a lot of heat in the West TX summer months.
Oh, on the end of each LED strip, I put a little blob of adhesive for extra security. I used Goop. Nitehawk would use Shoe Goo.
