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

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.

This is the first roll of gaffer tape Ive ever purchased so I cant make comparisons to any other brands, but I can say that I dont imagine another brand could be better. I needed this tape to do a couple last-minute gigs running sound for a band who were bringing their own PA to venues that didnt have their own. With a combination of the bands and my own equipment we ran 4 drum mics, 3 vocal mics, bass and guitar amp mics, and a keyboard direct out along with 3 wedge monitors and 2 mains speakers, and used the gaffer tape to keep things relatively clean and held in place so no one tripped over anything on the dinky stages. The tape did its job superbly, nothing got shifted around during the shows, and we were able to keep the cables out of the bands way. Even though the tape held very securely to the wood and linoleum surfaces the cables were run across it lifted off easily, and most importantly left no gunk on my mic cables or on the floor, and even on a wooden end table in a little alcove by the stage where I had set up my mix position. Also during setup it was very easy to tear off the pieces I needed and never once had to use a blade. This is high quality gaffer tape that I wouldnt hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Not much to say about this tape other than it’s quality gaffers tape. I use this on photo and video shoots to hold down stands and what not. It’s not cheapo quality and sticks very well. Just as you would hope gaffers does. Will buy these again in other colors. Solid purchase.

The best thing Ive ever ordered off of Amazon. Coming here to repurchase in the same color, hot pink. Ive tried other brands of gaff tape but this is my favorite. I use this for all sorts of stuff, its super handy, and the bright color ensures I never misplace it.

The last brand I had felt cheap and didnt adhere quite so well. This brand feels much more ruggedly built and has better adhesion. Id say it was worth the slight extra cost. Ill be ordering this brand from now on.

Exactly as expected seems like a high quality tape.

Worth the money. Low reflection, great for hunters. Leaves no residue, and has great adhesion compared to others Ive bought on Amazon. Worth the money. Buy it!

A super high quality gaffers tape thats very handy for a myriad of applications. Its a tad pricey but you certainly get what you pay for. I did an informal residue test on a chair that has a tear on the vinyl armrest. After carefully removing the tape, there was no trace of adhesive (even after a two months). Since this is a high traffic area of the chair, there was some peeling from the constant hand and body contact but I only applied one layer. Ill put more layers or perhaps wrap the affected area with a few layers. I didnt initially want to do this as it would make it look like a bandaged anime character! But I think its going to be the best method to ensure the torn area is not exposed again going forward.

I keep hoping that one of these off-brands will work well for half the price, but they dont do the job. They are much harder to tear cleanly, harder to pull the tape off the roll, and dont stick as well. The material is more plasticky rather than clothy like ProGaffe.

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