> 3 dayIm picky about electric tape. I was so tired of buying the same hard tape over and over. This stuff is softer, stickier, and easier to cut with a razor. It molds to the wire better and makes me feel better about protecting the connection.

> 3 dayI admit when I first opened both rolls, the sides of rolls were so gooey/sticky. I just left opened rolls sit out for maybe a week and it was gone. I wanted the tape to wrap my rod iron which is peeling. I couldn’t afford to get repaired. This worked like a charm.

> 3 dayMy family would tell you Im obsessed with tape. Having the right tape for the right job is very important to me. I have a large tape collection of specialized tapes Ive ordered over the years from tape wholesalers to address a myriad of needs. So when I designate a tape as multi-use that says a lot! Im thrilled to have found this tape in the Violet color at Amazon! I use different colors for different purposes and violet has always been designated as my travel tape. I originally purchased a 6 pack of this brand in 6 different colors from our local Ace Hardware. Each roll lasted for years. Our local store no longer sells them in multi-packs nor do they carry the violet color any longer. So I replenished other colors from them but not my most used color of violet. In retrospect I wish Id discovered that Amazon carries this first! Amazons prices for most colors are far better than Aces. Here most rolls cost $3.98. A few, like blue and violet cost $6.15. The higher price is about what we paid at the hardware store for all the individual colors. I use the violet tape to wrap around the lids of containers with liquids to prevent leakage caused from the pressurization of airplanes. After sealing the cracks with this violet tape each little travel sized bottle is placed into a small ziplock baggie too. Just in case I didnt do a good enough job wrapping the lid and some body lotion or hair conditioner leaks out anyway...its mess is contained to the immediate baggie its in. I love my system which is highly dependent upon this exact brand of tape. Frankly I never really noticed that this was electrical tape before and in a pinch Ive tried to use standard black electrical tape for this same purpose but with poor results. There are 2 main reasons this tape is far superior. First the stretchiness of this brand enables it to conform better to each lid shape improving the failure rate (meaning less leakage) a lot. 2nd, this tape leaves no residue behind. So when I arrive at my destination I remove the tape used to seal each container and stick it to the side of a vinyl cosmetic bag to be reused for the return trip. The longevity of this brand of tapes use for this purpose is remarkable. In some instances the same piece of tape has been reused many, many times with no loss of stickiness. So the main benefits of this brand of tape versus other more typical electrical tapes include: 1. This brand is much stretchier. 2. This tape leaves zero residue behind 3. It retains its stickiness after many uses 4. Its reusability factor is very good When I use any other tape for the same purpose it rarely lasts beyond 1 trip. One minor disadvantage exists which is that because of its stretchiness, when a piece has been stretched a lot and then I place it on the side of a cosmetic travel bag to be reused for a return trip...the tape itself no longer lies flat. Thats because the edges have been stretched and they become misshapen and sort of bumpy. This doesnt negatively impact its use but it just makes it look messy and unkept. But once its reused this disadvantage disappears. Its really a minor thing! What more can I say about this amazing tape? Well one more thing I can think of is some of my other uses which include labeling things, identifying things by tape color and last I sometimes use this brand of tape for actually wrapping worn sections of charging cables...so thats kind of an electrical use I guess :-) I love the huge variety of colors this tape comes in as well! Thats about all I can think of off the top of my head. I truly believe anyone trying this tape for the 1st time will be equally impressed!
