Review on ๐Ÿ“ฆ ProTapes Artist Tape Flatback Printable Paper Board or Console Tape - 60 yds x 1" - White (1 Pack) by Brandon Micali

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for what it does and it's a far cry from duct tape.

Bought this ribbon to make it easier to create and change labels for control circuit boards. Let's look at some properties of the tape. Color: This material is white, most masking tapes are beige. The material is smooth, most masking tapes are uneven. Thanks to their smoothness and whiteness, they are very easy to write on. IF you use the right thing to write with. The writing splatters on most pens. Ink pens miss a lot. Gel pens are terribly smudged. Pencils don't appear. White erasable pens and regular fiber tips are easy to wipe off. The only thing I've found that works, and works very well, are fine-tipped Sharpie pens, like the Sharpie Retractable Ultra Fine Point permanent markers. Colors stand out and don't fade. The tape feels firmer than the masking tapes I've used and the adhesive feels stronger. gluey. So far I've never had a problem with clean tape removal. And if I suspect the adhesive is doing damage in a particular case, another review has a great suggestion of quickly touching the sticky side of the tape with your clothing (or carpet or upholstery) which adds some dust/lint onto the sticky Take a side and make it a little less sticky. This material is ideal for writing on occasional media panel labels. Thanks to its stickiness, the next problem it will help me is clearing the swamp that is our fuse box.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will write later
