Gaffer Power Premium Grade Gaffer Tape, Made in the USA, Heavy Duty gaff Tape, Non-Reflective, Multipurpose. 2 Inches x 30 Yards, Black

Excellent for hundreds of reasons. Better quality than other brands. Better than Amazon basic tape (residue). Keep buying again and again.

So, some popular... fashionista has said that this is the strongest tape there is... Its not... It doesnt even work for me as boob tape like she suggested. Gaffer tape just doesnt have the hold I need for that. However, since it is gaffer tape, if you use it for what its intended for this stuff is great. I got a white roll to tape some speakers onto my wall because I live in an apartment and Im not allowed to put nails in the wall (the speakers have bits for hanging with nails). The walls are white, the tape is white, and when it comes time to move, being gaffer tape, it wont leave any adhesive residue behind. And thats what makes gaffer tape so great. Its about as strong as standard duct tape, but doesnt hold up under moisture quite as well. It certainly doesnt have the hold of Gorilla Tape or T-Rex Tape, but those, like all duct tapes, leave adhesive residue behind. If you care about not having to get adhesive off of surfaces that might be damaged by attempts to remove left over adhesive, and or that might be damaged by removing the tape if the adhesive is too aggressive, then gaffer tape is the right stuff to get.

Hard to know what kind of gaff you’ll get off Amazon but this is good stuff.

Executive Summary: If youre looking for true professional gaffer tape (matte finish, temporary fixture like cables on a set, easy removal, no adhesive residue), this is the right stuff. If youre looking for an inexpensive alternative to consumer duct tape, this isnt it. There are a LOT of places to get the wrong stuff - your average hardware store, big boxes like Home Depot and the like. Most consumer retail will sell a 2 black tape that can be useful for assorted uses and applications - but it wont perform like actual gaffer tape. Im a professional musician. I gig several times a week. Often on stage and on a set, cables need to be secured in traffic areas, or on a keyboard stand for aesthetic appearance (nothing screams NO ATTENTION TO DETAIL like a rats nest of cabling in clear sight of the audience). And true gaffer tape is also useful for neatly taping over huge logos on the back of keyboard gear - useful on television, in church, in any non-endorsement environment. For all these uses and more, stage pros use gaffer tape - stays securing in place when you need it, removes fast and easy when its time to break down, and no horrible sticky glue residue on your precious gear. If you need the real stuff, you know who you are. This is actual gaffer tape. If you dont think you need this stuff, there are lots of other alternatives out there. But you might still want to try gaffer tape - its a quality pro product. NOTE: I bought this stuff myself for full price right here on Amazon. I didnt receive a discount, a review sample, or any other incentive to write a review (like SO many useless, bought reviews now on Amazon). In the old days, I use to rely on Amazons review for honest user feedback. Now I cant rely on it anymore. Bad bad news.

I am a DD I try to use this for a strapless dress. It ended up rolled up under my breast. Makes movement difficult no dancing in this did not meet my expectations. Cannot recommend this product.

This tape isnt very sticky, not sure if thats how its supposed to be? It is very thick and durable though, you have to use scissors to cut it.

Never used gaffe tape before. Based on the description it looked like it would work well to darken vertical blinds slats to make them more like blackout type. It worked great. It was easy to use where normally a duct tape type would have been a horror show, creating creases and other issues. This tape did none of that. The cloth component makes it so forgiving that it was amazing. The adhesion is as good as duct tape, just much easier to use. Highly recommended.

Excellent tape to have on hand - real gaffer tape is often the best choice, in that it sticks and holds like duct tape, but releases like blue painters tape.

Im a guitarist doing live shows. It tears off easily, tears off clean, removes easily, and removes absolutely clean. When the price went up, I tried the Amzn Basics brand. Bad move. If you want gaffers tape that does what it is supposed to do with no aggravation, just get the Real USA brand. There is literally a difference.
