I found a couple of potential sources. I'm not sure if they are exactly
what you're looking for....

Subject: Looking for Sources for Volara tape

Hi Everyone,

Some years ago I purchsed a great product - volara foam with an acrylic
adhesive on one side  - that has proved immensely useful in constructing
object housings and to apply local soft foam padding and cushioning as
needed.

I have a large architectural project where this volara foam tape would
be a perfect solution for installing hundreds of ceiling tiles and in
searching the archival company catalogs yesterday I was unable to find
this product anywhere, much to my dismay.

Does anyone know a source where I can find this?

We are hoping to find a tape that is 1/2" wide and anywhere from 1/8"
to 1/4" thickness, although I can go with a wider tape and cut it down.

Any leads or suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers!
Dave
