Goldilocks Double Sided Tape Solution

I ran out of my old standard double-sided (DS) tape that worked well, but couldn't find it anywhere in Calgary. It is extremely difficult to remove the backing once placed on the wood. I received a new BrandX roll from Lowes which was quite sticky but the foil just fell off when I cut a piece of tape to properly place the PITA on the tree. I received the Intertape591 DS tape a few days ago and have used it on a liner that I cut with a router for the last two nights. I believe that this decision"Goldilocks"! It cuts very easily with scissors, the backing stays in place so you can press it lightly against the wood surface and then the backing comes off with little effort. And as another review noted, it's sticky enough to use multiple times after you pull the two pieces of wood apart. I will definitely make this purchase again.

Pros
  • Adhesion: 52 ounces per inch (on stainless steel test plate). Tensile Strength: 34 psi (longitudinal). Thickness: 12 mil (backing, adhesive, liner), 7 mil (backing, adhesive), 5 mil (substrate). Elongation: 3%.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
