Review on πŸ“¦ Packaging Clear Scotchpad by 3M - 3750P by Brian Olson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The pre-cut strips are amazing

I have to label a lot of bottles and I have to cover the labels with tape to make them waterproof. These strips are easy to use and much quicker than using a roll of tape and cutting to desired length. The strips appear to be thicker than normal packing tape and stick very well. Using this product has reduced the recording time by at least half. The only downside to this product is the cost. A pack only gets you 25 feet of tape, and at $7.50 a pack, you get 30 cents a foot, or 15 cents a strip. If you look at the rolls of tape, it's 1.5 cents a foot. So you're paying 20x more for the same amount of tape, but for the sake of convenience and time savings, I think the cost of this product balances it out. You can get this product cheaper now, which should help keep costs down a bit. Once you try this product, you probably won't go back to buns. ***UPDATE*** I must have used about 100 packs of these tapes in my job labeling water sample bottles over the past two years and they work great. Much quicker than cutting tape rolls to size, they are also thicker than regular tape rolls and just the right size. I've convinced almost everyone in my job to use these instead of regular roll tape as they don't require scissors on site or more than one person to remove the strip and close the label. Simply a great product.
