I have learned one thing in life when it comes to tape. If it doesn't say 3M on it, throw it in the trash. That's masking, packing, adhesive, acid-free, double-sided, whatever kinda tape you want. (Scotch tape is a 3M brand.)

No, I don't own any 3M stock, but I just might go out and buy some!

If you can spare the cash, gaffers tape is just as good.

RF, I meant that you are somehow related to a lawyer. Sorry my jokes are a bit off at times.

Nope... it's always nice to lie about having a relitive who practices law when you think someone's screwing with you.

Also, feel free to use the phrase "Thank Goodness! I was worried that I whouldn't have enough to write about for my column for Consumer Reports this month!"

It is too expensive for my tastes, but I like to use it for shows backstage, if I can, and if I am not footting the bill.

Fortunately, I operate a set of classroom video studios, and gaffers tape is a must and part of my stock and trade. But I agree...I can't afford it on a personal purchase basis myself! :rolleyes: Good stuff, though. Leaves absolutely NO residue, and probably would support a tank, if required. ;) Regards.
