yeah, tankslapper has a proprietary vinyl film they sell which uses static to cling to the bike. 3M is tougher and more expensive. The full kits are a mix of tankslapper material on the areas that don't face forward and the tank area, and the 3m for the high impact areas (all the surfaces that face forward). I tried the tankslapper material around the tank and ended up getting the same cuts in the 3M material.
