Review on Duck HP260 Packing Refill - Convenient 1067839 Option for Efficient Packaging by Bryan Fields

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not for cardboard! for packing tape

I've moved a lot. I've figured out which band is good, which is great, and which is rubbish. This band is simply not suitable for moving targets. It doesn't stick to the dusty or unfinished cardboard that shipping companies sell. It can be pressed, rubbed, smoothed, but often falls off. Glossy cardboard does not have this problem. For packing/changing, I prefer this: Scotch 3850-6 Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape, 1.88" x 54.6 yards, 3" core, 6 rolls, also available here at Revain. With that in mind, I LOVE THIS DUCK CLEAN TAPE! I've used this for other things for a long time. It's great for many types of repairs because it's durable and crystal clear. I have a huge library and I do every repair with a Duck HP 260. I add that my books have barcodes in the office and I use this tape to attach them to the back of the book. Accidentally tore a page out of a notebook? I have many uses in workshops and offices and its thickness, squeaky clarity and durability make this one of TWO tapes I buy just not for cardstock.

Pros
  • Packing tape
Cons
  • Big and bulky
