"Yes, easy to see and soon we may remove that tape."
"I have used this painting tape for years. NOTE ON PAINTING WALLS WITH BASEBOARDS. This painters tape works very well when painting walls with baseboards IF the baseboards are snug against the wall. It is not suitable to use this painters tape on baseboards that are NOT snug against the wall due to wavy walls or because the wall is moderately textured."

"The ScotchBlue Painter's Tape was exactly what I needed for repainting the trim throughout my house."

Reviews
"In the field, for video and audio equipment as well as around the house, this is the fifth or sixth brand of gaffer tape I've used over the years, and it's different from the others. That binder makes the other tapes stiffer, and those stiffer edges make it easier for the fingers and thumbs of your two hands to act like scissors to start a tear at the desired length. Precisely because it is more flexible, this tape requires a much stronger pinch between the index fingers and thumbs of each hand, with the two grips very close to each other, to start a tear. This XFasten tape is easier to pull off the roll, and when I stick a piece of this and an similar piece of ProGaf to my file cabinet, the XFasten tape seems to need only about half as much force to peel it off. With less flexibility the radius of curvature at the line where the tape is being pulled off is greater, so there is more surface area of adhesive stretching to resist removal."
"I found it was less expensive than white duct tape and needed it to secure red/white/blue table coverings at a military event."
"I have a laptop lap table that has a vinyl covered pillow that started peeling from old age."
"I was hoping it would work for a couple of repair applications and figured I would take a chance on it since everything I have used to date didn't hold for very long, or held and ruined the surface of what it was taped to. The exhaust hose attaches to the back of the unit and then stretches as needed to reach the window to blow the hot air outside. I tried this new gaffer tape on the exhaust portion and it is holding beautifully, even when the sun hits it! Today was another hot one, and I was cool and comfortable with the portable air conditioner running full blast and the exhaust hose is holding up in the window where I have it taped."
"Not a glass window, a wall, a table; it all unstuck and fell off."

Best Duct Tape

Gorilla 6035180 Tape, Black Duct Tape, 1.88" x 35 yd, Black, (Pack of 1)
Made with double thick adhesive, strong reinforced backing, and a tough all-weather shell, it’s the biggest, strongest, toughest thing ever to happen to duct tape. It sticks to Rough and uneven surfaces, including wood, stone, stucco and brick, that ordinary duct tapes can't hold. It is important to clean the surface and brush off any loose particles and dirt before applying Gorilla tape. to retain adhesive quality, store Gorilla tape in a cool, dry place. Try storing the tape vertically (rather than laying flat), on a hook or on wax paper. Great for indoor or outdoor use and made to stick to Rough, uneven, unforgiving surfaces like wood, stone, stucco, plaster, brick and more.
Reviews
"I was specifically interested in the adhesiveness and tensile strength of the 3 leading brands of black duct tape. The rubber adhesiveness when tested on a variety of surfaces did not reveal a discernible difference between the 3 brands. As one comment said, “It’s ALIVE!”. The Scotch tape is crinkled or wavy on the roll and if cut cleanly, the edge is hard to locate. For years, at the end of the fireplace season, I have placed a heavy tarp over the top of a brick chimney and secured it with black duct tape. I took several samples of each brand and folded the tape, adhesive side in, creating double-thickness strips 1/2-inch wide. I placed one end in a bench vice with padded jaws so the metal would not break the tape. A new Rapala digital fishing scale hooked to the Vice-Grip would reveal at what weight the strip of tape would break. The Scotch TOUGH Heavy Duty Tape broke at a mere 5 pounds."
"I used this to wrap around the joint between to bee hives in order to prevent wind from getting in... within a day, the tape came off of the painted wood and did not hold."
"My grandson was desk corner high and just learning to walk. He has even HUNG from them and picked his feet up off the ground, he's 30+ pounds."
"I like that it is black and blends in better than Duct Tape's normal silver color."
"This stuff sticks like crazy and I've used it in the place of other repair tapes and it seems to work just as well or better."
"I could tape the bumper on my car with it, hit 100mph and that sucker wouldn’t budge."
"This stuff is the bomb, it really works well."
"Best quality tape out there..."

Reviews
"I used the white gaffer tape to tape the cable so that it would blend in with the walls and ceiling as much as possible."
"I was in a hurry and ordered this brand rather than the other USA made brand I typically get, since The Gaffer Power tape seemed like a deal and had great reviews."
"I am not in the entertainment industry but use your tape in my workshop for a variety of jobs and and have even found it excellent for attaching sandblast stencils onto custom items which I make. If the tape will withstand 100 psi of pressurized air loaded with silicon carbide grit, it is really tough stuff."
"One of our helpers just pulled the cable up and the tape curled around and stuck to itself. First purchase worked so well that we decided to keep an additional supply on hand for our next production."
"We have dozens of different types of tape in several locations around our home. If you are used to 3 rolls for $1 department store tape, Gaffer tape might surprise you."
"Having fought duct tape for years (I maintain one of the strongest bonds in the universe is duct tape stuck to itself) I had no issues using this to secure my cables at an event over the weekend."
"http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Premium-Grade-Gaffer-Power%C2%AE/dp/B00GZE3UJ8?ie=UTF8&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0. This is my first experience with Gaffer tape, so all I can compare it to is duct tape."

Reviews
"If you only go partially around, the stress on the box would pull the tape free from the surface of the cardboard or whatever material the tape was attached to."
"I use this strapping tape for packages that I send to my son deployed overseas (it works best if you wrap the tape completely around the box and back onto itself)."
"Our weapons consist of mostly PVC, EVA Foam and duct tape."
"It's my favorite for taping shut the bottom of heavier boxes when I'm moving or storing things."
"I have learned to store filament tape in a dark place, as it will degrade when exposed to light."
"3M is the gold standard in my opinion when it comes to adhesives and other shop supplies."
"Yes, use a strong box too."
"I've gone through a lot of tape and this, by far, is the best at keeping my boxes (especially the ones filled with heavy items) sealed up securely."

Reviews
"I opened my espresso machine and added a tiny sliver of this tape on microswitch lever bar and the scrapy metal-on-metal sound of the grouphead lever (it is a La Marzocc Linea Mini) completely went away."
"At the time I didn't use regular drawer glides and was very upset when I went to use the drawers for the first time. It took me about 10 minutes total to take the 4 drawers out, put the tape on, put the drawers back in and then SMILE SMILE SMILE!! My wife has pain in each wrist from working, and she couldn't believe how easy it was to pull the drawers out now."
"The other is to apply the CS Hyde UHMW tape to plywood drawer bottoms. Another use for it is on the bottom of table saw jigs, like a table saw sled."
"The adhesive is nice and strong but if your drawer slides are covered with a fine layer of wood dust like mine were the tape won't stick."
"The drawers don't as well as if I rebuilt the cabinets and put in Accuride slides, but plenty good enough, and much easier and cheaper."
"However, I tried it on curtain rod as a "bridge" across where the telescoping rod create a obstacle to the ring flowing freely."
"And unlike so many other "tape" type products, this tape is cut straight without wavery edges, allowing you to follow a line or an edge without too much mid-taping adjustment."
"Used it to line under drawer slides."
