Consumer Reviews

When I opened the box I was disappointed at how small a roll of tape I had purchased.
But when I 1st found a use for it, I became a believer. This stuff is excellent to have around.
I have a leaky irrigation hose. I could either make a project of digging it up and replacing it, or I could patch it if I could find a patch process that would perform effortlessly. A short length of this tape, stretched and wrapped around the hose whilst it was spraying water, fixed the dilemma in a couple of minutes rather of a couple of hours. The patch has held up through many days worth of two hours' irrigation day-to-day, and it's searching solid. I'm glad to to have the rest of the roll on hand for the future.
This tape is not a film with separate adhesive it seems to be a homogeneous stretchy substance that melds to itself. So when you stretch it thin and wrap it about something, the layers fuse together and it becomes like a band about the point you've wrapped. For shipping and storage, the tape is separated by layers of an ordinary plastic film that is why the roll you see photographed looks like it has wrinkled edges. The separating film is significantly wider than the actual rescue tape itself, presumably to hold the rescue tape effectively separated from the subsequent layer of it.

This product has much more uses than 1 can visualize. I used it for woodworking glue-ups, firming up hockey gear....oh, I cannot list all the applications. It adheres nicely to most every thing, it stretches, it doesn't leave sticky marks like duct tape...just a fantastic product. As the volume picks up I hope the price comes down.
