actually scotchbrite works well to rough the surface also
I have some, I'll try it.

bit of super glue, she'll be right.
don't use super glue anywhere near a camera, the vapour from it ends up as a foggy residue that gets all over everything
a bit of glue on the mount prior to putting the adhesive on the mount can help though, it acts like a bonding agent if you use the right type of glue
Yeah, superglue anywhere on or near a camera is dumb. Just needs some fresh VHB tape.
I'm sure I didn't need to point that out for you, was more for anyone else that might come along that has a mount that has come off so they don't end up using superglue
Just have to be careful as people that don't know what happens with superglue can easily make a mess of things if they thought the advice was solidi wouldnt either, just in a dumb mood.
i guess so, theres all sorts out there.
FWI, my new SC separated from the plastic mount the same way as the original posted noted in late April. Only a week old, but not sure how long it had been in the inventory of my seller before it was shipped to me. Had some spare 3M tape and reapplied it to the mount. Should be okay now.

@jokiin and @Street Guardian USA, what do you make of the color of the tape in my photo? It's definitely a different tape product, authentic or not.
As I said the new "good" stuff is a dark grey (not like the old light grey stuff from 2014) For what ever reason, the super-black VHB tape doesn't hold up well. It's more important to keep the camera from falling off so this new tape was chosen.

yeah I noticed it looked different to normal, not something we normally would notice when the red plastic is still on as they don't look different from just the small bit you see from the side profile
