Review on XFasten Double Sided Tape Clear, Removable, 1-Inch By 20-Yards, Pack Of 3 Ideal As A Gift Wrap Tape, Holding Carpets, And Woodworking by Shawn Schmidt

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It's not really removable

This tape isn't really "removable" as described. What I needed was tape that would hold the flaps shut on my comic book bags, while still allowing me to reopen those bags as necessary. The bags are durable polypropylene, not unduly flimsy.At first, this seemed to do the trick. The tape's easy to use, and the protective layer peels up easily. But I discovered that after it's been allowed to set for a day or two, this tape simply won't allow you to lift the flap again, without tearing the bag (and risking damage to the comic inside, as well). :(It may be perfectly good for other purposes, but if you need it to be "removable" from anything other than a completely sturdy solid surface (stone? metal?) , this isn't the tape you want.

Pros
  • Holds carpets securely without slipping or sliding
Cons
  • The tape may not be suitable for use in certain construction or renovation projects
