Default HELP- Pickguard adhesive supplier

I took the pickguard off my J50 because it was slightly askew.
Boy does that glue gum up as your getting it off. After getting the glue off I buffed it down with 2000 paper to level it out, followed by Scratch X, and then Zymol. OK I'm ready to reinstall.

Where do you get the adhesive these days?
Do you use the 2 sided pickguard tape film?

Any help, suggestions, and/or a link would be greatly appreciated.

Stew Mac (Stewart McDonald) sells 3M adheisive sheets. Pain to work with but they work perfect. Old pickguards sometimes react to spray and curl.

Hey thanks for the reply.
I didn't even think about checking out Stew Mac - Thanks for the heads up.

Geez It looks really good without a pickguard. I woke up this morning and it looks really cool without one. You can see the slightest shade difference on the top where the the ol pickguard was but it is practically un-detectable.
I'll post a pic later.
