I installed the tape on the bottom of the drawer, and on the opposite surface. Unfortunately the sheer size of the drawer provided too much surface area to really make the tape effective. So, I cut some 1" x 24" strips of 1/4" thick umhw I had lying around as "runners" (to reduce surface contact) for the tape on the drawer bottom to make contact with. Boom. Slides beautifully.
I could have applied the tape to some maple strips (as opposed to the 1/4" umhw I had), but decided the solid umhw would increase the slide factor. It did.
The tape adheres very well to plywood. I don't think it will come unstuck, but time will tell.
Good product, easy to use.
