A:
You do not need to heat the tape for it to stick. "Hot melt" just means that the adhesive is not solid at warmer temperatures than acrylic tape is. If it were solid, it would not stick. In other words, if you are using the tape in a refrigerated or freezing environment, this tape will not stick. This tape is ideal for everyday purposes.
