I dont often write reviews however, after my experience with this tape I was compelled to share.loading first roll-could not get tape initiated due to being thin and tearing each time I attempted to pull away from the tape underneath. I tried a second roll, same, third roll, same, at which time I tossed all of the rolls and reordered "Scotch/3M". There may be a less expensive brand out there but this is not it!See full review
