1. A moldable adhesive comprising:
at least two adhesive layers; and at least one layer of thin, flexible, elastic film between two adjacent adhesive layers to form a composite adhesive structure, wherein the moldable adhesive is formed by rolling or folding the composite adhesive structure onto itself such that the inner surface of the composite structure upon rolling provides a counteracting force to allow the edge of the rolled composite adhesive structure to partially return to its original size and shape.
