I found the 3M LJ very intresting and enjoyed learning about their products. I feel that the product design is very high tech and innovative. I really liked the adhesive stick which they used to make the beautiful building called jewel. I find it's a great way to not have cracks in the glass by using screws and instead have a more longer lasting tape which does stop sticking. Overall, experience was great and will recommend it to people I know
