Excellent visibility so far

Good reflective strip. Used it to wrap around a pole and on a mailbox for a little increased visibility. Applies easily and so far, it’s withheld the elements so the adhesion is solid.

Pros
  • Suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor environments
Cons
  • May not adhere well in extreme cold temperatures

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not great, and barely OK if you use it quick enough.

Reflective surface is bright enough, but do not let the roll sit too long. The adhesive stuff will stick to the roll and rip of the reflective surface on the opposing side, effectively flipping the tape and making the reflective side adhesive.

Pros
  • Ultra-bright and highly reflective even in low-light or low-visibility conditions
Cons
  • Lacks durability compared to other reflective tapes

Very Reflective: my feedback

This particular brand isnt the brightest reflective tap out there, but it is better than expected for the price. I used it to make little identifier flags on tent stakes for around the campsite. with a bright enough moon you can see these reflecting and avoid a trip on your fly lines.

Pros
  • Can be used on a variety of surfaces including metal, plastic, and fiberglass
Cons
  • Ineffective in foggy or rainy weather conditions

Bright solution. good for me

I love this tape. I cut out a house number out of it for the mail box, as well as added it to the driveway side pavement stones. It reflect lights very well after sunset and the night. Happy with it I might use it in few more crafty ideas for outdoors.

Pros
  • Can withstand extreme temperatures without losing its reflective properties
Cons
  • Bulk rolls may be difficult to handle for individual applications

Won’t last long. for my opinion

I bought this about a month ago for my mailbox. It’s already peeling off and it makes me sad. So no, it is not weatherproof.

Pros
  • Safety Warning Tapes
Cons
  • Not heat-resistant, may melt in hot temperatures

Adhesive backed reflective tape

Well, not impressed. The adhesive is not very aggressive and it just doesn’t stick very well, even when you scrupulously clean the surface to which it will be applied. Began peeling in a day. Also not terrible reflective. Not the best.

Pros
  • Great adhesion, put on catfishing jugs
Cons
  • Not flexible, difficult to apply to curved surfaces

This stuff is AWESOME

I bought this because we were planning a trip to Norway and I read an article about the reflective garments everyone wears there. It's a safety thing, they are very active and it get dark very early in the winter. Pretty much every article of clothing you buy there has "reflects" on it already but obviously we weren't buying a whole new wardrobe. This tape is HIGHLY reflective and sticks to jackets (on the seams and everything), boots, etc. Haven't tried it on metal but i imagine it would be…

Pros
  • Compliant with DOT-C2 regulations for reflectivity and color
Cons
  • May easily get dirty or contaminated

Doesn’t hold up for my opinion

We used this on some tools we have with us when we RV so they are used infrequently (maybe once a month) and the tape separates from the plastic coating and it doesn’t stick well.

Pros
  • Not very stiff. Easy to wrinkle on rounded substrate.
Cons
  • Difficult to cut with scissors

No reflection and comes off in snow and wind.

Don’t waste your money. i put on a step to reflect and it lasted a few days then wind and snow blew it away. never reflected day or night.

Pros
  • BETTER REFLECTION,ENHANCED VISIBILITY,DOT-C2 APPROVED REFLECTOR TAPE, DOT High intensity glass beads reflective material is 10 times reflective than pvc reflective material.Our auto consipicuity tape will maxmize vehicle's visibility at night.Able to reflect lights from different angle.One of the most SHINING refletive tape in the market you could find.
Cons
  • May not stick to freshly painted surfaces

Does not stick in my review

This doesn’t even stick to itself, sticky side to sticky side. Maybe I got a bad batch, but I won’t be buying again.On the positive side, it seems like it would be durable and it is reflective.

Pros
  • Very reflective!
Cons
  • the adhesion is weak IMO.

Works better than I expected

Need some reflective tape for my helmet and this works quite well. The adhesive seems strong and the tape has no signs of coming off. Not sure how long it will last, so far so good.

Pros
  • INDUSTRIAL ADHESION, EASY TO APPLY We have already made this reflective tape into different size options for your specific needs. Our traffic safety reflective tape comes with honeycomb pattern on the back and very strong adhesion.Stickiness will remain even longer than service life
Cons
  • Visible adhesive streaks can be seen from a distance

Do your homework first

The videos show ppl putting this tape on round bar aluminum. Well what they didn't show was after a day or so it will peel up. I've tried to put a peice of this tape on a rounded side of my bicycle and within a day it started to peel away from the frame of the bicycle. It is visible at night when cars are around.

Pros
  • Instills confidence in drivers and helps to promote safe driving practices
Cons
  • Reflective properties can be dulled by road grime or dirt

Writing on Tape: my feedback

I bought this to put on a steps on a paver patio. The first spool worked good so I bought another. The second spool had "DOT 2" written all over it. I thought it was maybe the beginning or end of the spool so returned it for another. The 3rd spool had the same writing on it so now I have to return it to.

Pros
  • Provides an effective warning and visual alert to other drivers on the road
Cons
  • Narrow width may not be suitable for all applications

Versatile reflective tape

I often walk in the early morning hours before daylight and at night as my schedule allows. I bought this tape to put on my backpack, shoes, hat, and vest. I have been stopped many times by people thanking me for being easy to be seen. The tape works! Keeps me safe.

Pros
  • {}
Cons
  • Not easily customizable to different shapes and sizes

Does it's job well

I've used these on my helmet and my bike wheels amongst other things, and they work great! Riding through rain or my saddle bags running on them did nothing. No peeling or falling off. Sturdy, sticky, and highly reflective!

Pros
  • Resistant to fading and discoloration over time
Cons
  • May not withstand exposure to certain chemicals

Well, it is reflective.

Not sure why there is a rating for "warmth" but I gave it 5 stars. This tape is not warm nor does it have any insulation properties. But it does reflect light well. I used it for a helmet and some body armor I use for skating at night.

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting, able to withstand harsh weather conditions
Cons
  • Does not have a reflective edge

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It is not very reflective.

Pictures using the flash are misleading -- this tape is not very reflective. Tested with a flashlight in a dark room, it barely stands out under the direct beam, and reflects nearly nothing when lit from the side. I was going to use this on my bike, but will need to pick a better brand to ensure I am seen.

Pros
  • It looks nice, But the adhesion is not good enough, it got out constantly on my bike.
Cons
  • Only effective up to a certain distance

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I used to illuminate the edge of a sign. It works well, adheres, and let’s see how it holds up, it’s only been a couple of weeks

Pros
  • good product.
Cons
  • Tape may shrink or stretch over time

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cons

-1⭐ For Backing Paper

Everything is good except the paper is difficult to peel off. It's two ply paper (see pictures); one layer peels off while the other says stuck to the tape. It took a while, but I was finally able to get the second layer seperated. If you don't peel both layers off the tape will not adhere to anything. When cutting the tape, leave a little extra backing paper to make it easier to peel.

Pros
  • Provides added peace of mind and protection for drivers and passengers
Cons
  • Not environmentally friendly, disposal may be an issue
