We use a 3m Acrylic tape.
Its tricky to install. We usually pull a small bit of backing off of each tape line and let it hang out from the bottom edge when installing.
One of us usually holds up an end about 0.250" from the applictaion surface while the other pulls the backing off and presses that section down.

Be sure to clean the surface with denatured and use Adhesion promoter before installing.

If you need any help shoot me a PM.
