Gaffer Power Proudly Made in The USA, Real Professional Grade Gaffer Tape, Heavy Duty Gaffers Tape, Non-Reflective, Multipurpose. 2 Inches x 30 Yards, Black

I cannot believe how wonderful this tape is. I taped up a sign on an outside brick wall. It has been rained on so many times and also has been frozen and it's still holding strong! I've used it on 2 metal cabinet doors that refuse to stay closed. The tape holds, pulls up easily to open the cabinets and sticks right back when I close them. They must have been opened 100 times and the tape is still working as if it were the first time. I have used it to tape up boxes, then realized that I left something out of the cardboard box. The tape pulled up easily with only about a 1 inch by 1/4 inch piece of paper pulling up from the box. The tape then resealed the box perfectly. When I went to put the box back in storage, it slipped in my hands and I was holding it upside down with the tape on the bottom. It was about 50 lbs and I thought sure that the tape would fail and everything would spill. It did not. The tape held fast. It has worked great around my windows to help keep out the cold. You know how sometimes you get tape crooked and when you pull it up to straighten it, the tape twists and sticks to itself? This has not happened at all with the GafferPower Gaffer tape. I also had a plastic bag in the freezer that tore. I used the Gaffer tape. About a month later, I removed it from the freezer and pulled it off of the plastic bag without a problem. I stuck it on the side of the fridge until I could throw it away. I forgot about it and 3 days later I noticed it on the fridge. I assumed it would fall right off having been in the freezer for a month. It did not. It was stuck well to the fridge and there was no residue left on my fridge when I removed it!!!!! How I wish I had known about this tape sooner. The clear package tape and the Duct tape are going in the back of the drawer only to be used in emergencies. Can't wait to try some of the other colors! It also does NOT hurt that this is made in the U.S.A. and is affordable!!!! I wish Amazon would sell more made in the USA products.

I used this tape at a convention, on carpet, on wiring...it worked great!! No sticky mess. Didn't come loose from carpet and did not make my wires sticky. I highly recommend! 5 Stars all the way.

This tape worked great for what we needed. It securred the cables so no one tripped over them and was easily removed afterwards. No residue. Easy to tear. It was a last minute need and was delivered early the next day.

I used to work in film when I lived in Los Angeles and used a ridiculous amount of gaffers tape in my day. I'm just getting back into photography and videography and was skeptical buying gaffers tape from Amazon, especially at what I consider a low price. BUT ... this tape works GREAT! I'm almost out and ready to buy several more rolls of different color. No worries on the quality ... it's good.

So, some "popular"... "fashionista" has said that this is the strongest tape there is... It's not... It doesn't even work for me as "boob tape" like she suggested. Gaffer tape just doesn't have the hold I need for that. However, since it is gaffer tape, if you use it for what it's 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 I'm 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 won't leave any adhesive residue behind. And that's what makes gaffer tape so great.It's about as strong as standard duct tape, but doesn't hold up under moisture quite as well. It certainly doesn't 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.

UPDATE: 1 Year Later -- Oct/2016Just wanted to update, as someone who had never used this tape, a year ago, I now wish I'd discovered it ages ago, because it is now my "go to" tape for so many things. I'm many rolls into my use and experience with it, and I just keep finding great ways to use this in place of other tapes (particularly duct tape) I relied on, in the past, that just don't do anywhere near the job that this tape can do.I now have cords safely secured, I have protected phone lines on carpeted areas where once they were walked on, tripped over, and exposed to damage. I have used it as a means of temporarily securing things, without damaging paint on walls. I have even made straps out of it (sticking two pieces together) to secure routers to the walls in the office, so they are safe from falling over or off of a shelf. I've reinforced storage boxes, made a container for my car trunk area (that has held up like steel), patched things, and the list of uses just goes on. This tape is super versatile.Plainly put, Gaffer Tape is INCREDIBLE stuff, and I'm seriously glad I gave it a try. If you've always relied on other tapes in the past, please give this a try, because it is far superior to any other tape out there, in my experience, for what it can do, and it comes in handy for countless tasks.I'm now a fan of this stuff, for life!ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW (October of 2015)Well, this is my first experience trying out this tape, which I bought to have an added option for those "I NEED TAPE!!!" moments that come up in life. Duct tape and electrical tape are great, but sometimes reach their limits -- and I REALLY like the appearance of this tape, far better than any other tape I've seen.We all have those repair jobs we do, to save some bucks, and, nothing against good old duct tape, but it can look a little tacky sometimes, as we all know, and this tape has a matte, material surface, instead of the shiny vinyl look of duct tape, so I was happy to see that, for whatever needs come up, it will look far better and, based on reviews here, it will obviously perform very well also.My initial need was to create a storage box in my car trunk, and the project turned out well. I use race fuel additive, and of, course, I always keep a few cans in the trunk for fill ups, but got tired of them either rolling around, or stuck in a crummy old plastic bag. Now they are stored neatly, out of the way and the Gaffer Tape did well for this little project.Customer service from the seller here, WebGage, is PHENOMENAL. They answered all of my questions, plus they even send out a free guide about the Gaffer Tape, which came in very handy for me, as a first time buyer, trying this product.I'm sure I will have a million more needs for this tape, as time goes on, and it's awesome to now have another option. I already prefer it to duct tape, just on this first time use, and, now that I've read their guide they sent out, I have even more needs that this tape can meet!I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
