Incredibly strong, long-lasting tape

I bought this because our dog had torn a foot-wide hole in our screen door. I put several pieces on each side, holding together the remaining screen but leaving a hole covered just by the tape. That tape has been exposed to 100-degree summer days, has had a foot of snow packed against it, and has been rained on dozens of times over the last two years. There is not a tiny piece starting to unpeel. Let's face it, duct tape peels and frays when left outside. This tape is incredible. I bought…

Pros
  • It can be used to create a temporary seal on punctured tires
Cons
  • May not be strong enough for heavy-duty applications

Like duct tape, but better.

This is some seriously strong tape. I competitively race radio controlled cars and some of the bodies on these cars can get pretty hammered pretty quickly. Rather than spend $30 to replace a body and spend a week repainting my trim scheme I figured I'd go all hillbilly on it and tape it back up. I'm astounded to report that this tape not only mended my huge crack in the polycarbonate body but it actually strengthened that area from further damage. A layer of tape on top and a layer of tape on…

Pros
  • The tape is transparent, making it perfect for use on surfaces where appearance matters
Cons
  • May discolor over time, especially when exposed to heat or moisture

It Actually Works 100%

One of my plastic refrigerator door shelves, while cleaning, fell and cracked making it impossible to put it back to hold bottles, etc. I really did not know what would fix it. I ordered the Gorilla Crystal Clear Duct Tape with my fingers crossed. Immediately after its arrival I taped the shelf where it was cracked on both sides as instructed. It is now a permanent part of my refrigerator. It worked 100%. YAY!

Pros
  • This tape is UV and temperature resistant making it great for repairs both indoors and out; does not yellow outdoors
Cons
  • May require multiple layers for higher-stress repairs

Great adhesive tape

It's gorilla tape so you know it's going to be good. Good price on this. Not much to say - it does the job! May not work well in humid or wet conditions!

Pros
  • Crystal Clear Gorilla Duct Tape is ideal for thousands of uses and sticks to almost everything—the uses are virtually endless
Cons
  • May not work well in humid or wet conditions

Worked for upholstery rip and inflatable tear

This tape is strong and SUPER sticky. I used it to tape up a rip in my car's leather seat, and it took a few tries to cut out the shape I wanted neatly because the glue grabs so hard. And man, the fingerprints show. But as far as sealing up the rip securely, it's been doing a great job, despite it being in a spot I regularly sit on.Also used it to seal up a tear in my daughter's inflatable pool island. Since fingerprints and a nice shape were not really an issue, I fixed the tear in seconds…

Pros
  • The tape is easy to handle and can be used by anyone, regardless of experience or skill level
Cons
  • The tape may stretch or sag under tension

Didn't meet expectations

It didn't adhere the way I expected it to outdoors or indoors. It fell off after a while. It may work for something small that is meant to stay dry.

Pros
  • I bought this tape to patch an office chair and laminate desk and am very
Cons
  • The packaging is bulky and wasteful

Works great for repairing screen door

I used this to repair a patio screen that had pulled away from the frame on one side. It adheres much better than other tapes I've tried to use for this purpose, and seems pretty weatherproof. It gets a lot of direct sunlight and has survived some hard rains. I also used it to repair the rubber soles of some slippers after they had cracked, and it worked better than other tapes I've tried. Seems to outperform regular duct tape by quite a bit, and works much better than any other tape I've…

Pros
  • It can be used to repair damaged furniture or home appliances
Cons
  • May leave a residue behind when removed from certain surfaces

More Like Heavy Duty Packing Tape Than Duct Tape

I have had my roll for about 4 months now and just recently had the first occassion to use some of it. To me, to be classed Duct tape has a fabric layer, this does not. It is heavy duty, for sure, but basically appears to be heavier than normal packaging tape.Unfortunately, the one small job I have used it on has not turned out well. I noticed that after a week it had peeled away in two places on the item I had used it on. Maybe it will do better on other type of repair jobs but I will probably

Pros
  • The tape is incredibly easy to apply, making it an ideal choice for quick repairs around the home or office
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove from surfaces without damaging the underlying material

This Stuff is Awesome!

This clear Gorilla Tape is just as described. It has strong adhesion, it’s waterproof, and it can be removed easily. I find a lot of uses for it, including using it for patch repairs until I can find someone to do a proper repair job. The price from Ebay is comparable to the cost of getting it at a big box store, and Ebay is much more convenient.

Pros
  • Adhesives, Sealants & Lubricants
Cons
  • Difficult to remove without leaving residue behind

Weatherproof Tape on my review.

Used this amazing tape to hold together a shredded canvas awning. A few days later, extreme winds whipped it around and it stayed completely in place! You can move it around, if needed, when placing it but in a few days it will have a strong bond. I highly recommend this tape and will buy it again. It’s definitely weatherproof in wind, sun or rain.

Pros
  • The tape is incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of applications
Cons
  • Can be difficult to remove if applied incorrectly

This is great stuff

I needed to cover a hole in a glass window after the mower threw a rock. The hole is about the size of a quarter and as it got colder (and wetter) the issue became worse. I put a piece of Gorilla Tape over the hole and used a metal scraper to press it down really well. It's been up for a couple of months and doesn't show any sign of weather damage. It will show fingerprints, and it's almost impossible not to get fingerprints on the tape. That is the only negative, and not worth removing a star.

Pros
  • It's the perfect solution for fixing rips, tears, and other types of damage to plastics, fabrics, and other materials
Cons
  • Can be prone to lifting or peeling when exposed to moisture or high humidity
