Abstract: A highly tacky continuous, generally self-sustaining film of pressure sensitive adhesive (formed by combining two pre-formed pressure sensitive adhesive films) without any imbedded supporting film uniquely useful for the bonding of two variably curved surfaces in superposed relationship, especially where said two surfaces are a natural fingernail and a superimposed plastic artificial fingernail, the minimum thickness of said film being at least 8 mils, the maximum thickness being about 12 mils, and the minimum initial adhesion to low energy plastic surfaces of said adhesive being at least 9 as defined by 3M Guide at page 16.
