Abstract

A device for use in repairing automotive bodies which has an elongated flexible strap constructed of a tough material, such as reinforced neoprene rubber. A ring is attached to one end of the strap while at least one and preferably several elongated strips of double-sided adhesive tape is secured to one side of the strap. The other side of the adhesive tape is adhesively secured to the automotive body so that a longitudinal force imposed on the strap through the ring is transmitted through the adhesive tape into the automotive body.
