Had a tapes on a 300 about 4 inches long covering erosion strip to blade interface (been on 200H +) just a corner lifted vibe started & progressed to bigger shake Vquick, not pleasant with only 50 hours or so, we landed peeled the tapes off all blades.
You have to fit correctly not easy if blades on machine, blades must be clean free, from polish, & warm, tape must be warm also.
Most of the adhesives require a time period to cure completely, or so I was told by a 3M man.
