Review on πŸ“¦ Scotch Lasting Storage Packaging 3650 6: Secure and Durable Container for Long-term Storage by Ricky Bedell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well - sticky - won't break

Some of the reviews made me nervous. Some of the photos show that people obviously didn't know how to seal the box with tape. Crease by crease all the way around - or just continue where you taped the bottom and stopped the tape. Then, for additional strength, walk a second path in the opposite direction to your first direction (perpendicular) around the perimeter of the box from end to end. So it looks like H. This is how you should glue the box. Some recycled boxes behave differently. While heavy-duty tape seems to be better, I have yet to see a broken seal on this material. Also follow the recommendations on your box certificate (on the bottom valve) - if it says 65lbs maximum weight then it means it. As a general rule of thumb, do not exceed 50% of the rated capacity when the box is out of 5ft is dropped (standard test). Just thought it might help a little. It's also ideal to keep in a cool, dark place, and even storing the opened pack in a zip-top freezer bag helps if you're not going to use it right away. A good thing. It's not the best 3M tape, but for the price it works well.
