Review on 🌊 Moltres Reflective Water-repellent High Visibility Reflector by Jose Schweigert

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Rigid, no stem, very thick

So I have this to add a reflective surface to my drone's foldable pad. The tape has three layers, a protective coating - a reflective layer - and a peel-off backing. I removed the protective cover just as easily as I removed the backing when trying to attach the tape. After application, the tape is very thick and not flexible at all. It won't stick to the 1/2 inch radius bend, it rises and curls, and the adhesive stays on the surface of the part, not the tape. The worst thing is that the tape is not that reflective. I was expecting performance to be similar to 3M reflective tape (DOT-C2 rating and all) but this tape is shiny, silvery but light passing through the tape is not reflected back to the source. There is some reflectivity but not as expected from true reflective tape. The other problem is that I'm convinced that the roll I received essentially lasts seconds. There are defects on the tape, often the protective layer does not stick well to the reflective layer, it peels off. Pressing in these places restores the connection of the layers, but there are flaws - the line is almost non-reflective. I'm sorry I wasted my money.
