I have been using blue heat transfer tape for many years now. It has always worked well and never given me any problems. I bought the gold colored band because I felt the stark contrast made it easier to see. Well yes, it's easier to see, but the tape is so thin that it's very difficult to remove after heating and without heating. I think I prefer a wider band too. Before buying obviously not checked the width. I think I'll toss it in my drawer "in case I run out" and go back to the blue heating tape. It's not the seller's fault, I just prefer the thicker tape as it's easier to remove after heating.
