Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Tyvek Sheathing Tape - 1.88 Inches x 164 Feet by Paul Abs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for reinforcing the spines/covers of reused books!

This material is great for binding handmade magazines! I accidentally pierced the spine of a book I bought at a dollar store and it was not in good "worn" or tattered condition. I was wondering how to salvage the cover. I then stuck Tyvek tape along the inside of the spine of the book and it worked like magic! The cover of the book is as solid as ever and I will now use it for the cover of an art magazine. I originally bought this to use in reused magazines that I didn't accidentally pierce through the cleats - to reinforce the cleats. It also works very well for this purpose. I'm just thrilled to be able to salvage books that I would otherwise have thrown in the trash due to damage that caused the cover/spine to weaken. I love this stuff! The fact that you can use it with alcohol ink is just a bonus.
