Review on ๐Ÿšธ Enhance Safety with High Visibility Reflective Tape Strip - Sew-on Warning Safety Trim (0.98in x 0.39in, White) by Richard Cartner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good reflective tape but MUST be bought in DAY-GLO colors - other colors are practically useless!

Very good reflective tape. I bought it after three neighbors (one of whom was me) got hit by cars while walking their dogs. (I'm not exactly sure how much that would help, because when I was personally hit, I was standing at a stop sign. I looked him in the eye before carefully crossing the street, and he STILL took his foot off the brake and hit me anyway.The green and yellow version of this ribbon will make you/your dogs/your kids much more visible.Easy enough to hand sew to your dog's t-shirts, backpack, baseball cap, etc with a few stitches Although they are washable, you only get a limited number of washes before the reflective portion of the tape looks damaged.If this bothers you, buy a sew-on velcro tape and sew reflective tape onto it so you remove it beforehand can wash.This may seem obvious but it isn't: Only the reflective tape reflects DIRECT HIT with headlights.The reflective part itself is gray giving you absolutely ZERO add Visibility EXCEPT when it reflects. , bright yellow or bright orange borders on each side, on the other hand, make you and your pets / children more visible in the ambient light. But not if you buy black or dark blue reflective tape, for example. Sure, it's less ugly, but it's utterly useless for visibility.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
