Sorry not to have added to this recently - working long hours lately.
WVVan, you asked about the thickness of the tape. I used the 0.090" tape on this page:
http://www.mcmaster.com/#8127a88/=7r08lw
The actual part number that I ordered should be highlighted in yellow on the page (if not, it's 8127A88). It's a 5-yard roll, but I've used the remainder for a million-and-one little jobs (like mounting my battery separator in the engine bay, and saving some scraped knuckles!)
Re: adhering to the stippled surface of the new tops, I'm afraid I can't say. The tape is meant to conform to irregularities (it's supposed to seep into the small cracks and bumps in a surface) but I'm not sure whether it can conform to such large bumps. Could you sand the surface down in the areas that you plan to mount the feet?
Cheers,
Mike.
