Gaffer Power Premium Grade Gaffer Tape, Made in the USA, Heavy Duty gaff Tape, Non-Reflective, Multipurpose. 2 Inches x 30 Yards, Black

I got this to cover a place on my couch that the cats had clawed. Unfortunately it wouldnt stick to the nappy material. But the color was perfect. We attached it with clear twist pins. Not perfect but lots better than it was.

I love this stuff, and use it all the time. Ive ordered it twice. (I got the bright green color this time to make it easier to find in my toolbox. Or tool bag. Or tool pile.) I never buy duct tape. Gaffer tape sticks better, tears off the roll cleanly, remains flexible, and comes off when you want without leaving a residue. As a photographer, Ive been aware of the difference between gaffer tape and duct tape for a long time, but true gaffer tape is hard to find. Im glad I found it here on Amazon. ------- Editing to add: Just bought my third roll. There are so many uses for this tape. In addition to holding things in place for still life photography (including taping my muslin backdrop to the wall) I use it for my home improvement projects. Im remodeling my bathroom, and I used this to protect the threshold of my new shower pan and a PVC window sill. They would otherwise have gotten scuffed while working in the room. It holds firmly but comes off without tearing apart or leaving reside. I attached some trim with adhesive, and used this to hold it in place, knowing it would come off cleanly once the adhesive was dry. I like the bright green color because its easy to find when mixed up with other tools and parts. It also works well to write on for labeling parts or wires. I know this is a lot of words for just tape but it really is good stuff.

Excellent gaffer tape. Just like the black tape gafferpower offers but in a woodland camo.

The last brand I had felt cheap and didnt adhere quite so well. This brand feels much more ruggedly built and has better adhesion. Id say it was worth the slight extra cost. Ill be ordering this brand from now on.

Ladies, if you want to buy this to create a “bra” for a strapless/backless dress or shirt, the adhesive is strong and will hold. I have D/DD breasts. I felt this did a fine job of holding my breasts, and didn’t seem to bother my skin or cause too much pain to remove. That aside, it is by NO means comfortable. Second to that, if you are wearing a very thin fabric, as I was, you can see small bumps where the texture of the tape overlapping shows. Perhaps I could have applied it more perfectly, but I did it very carefully and still it did not lay COMPLETELY smooth. A thicker fabric should not show any of this, I would think. All that being said, it was too uncomfortable for me to consider wearing all night and so I removed my tape “bra.”I put a cardigan on and wore a regular bra underneath my top, and then secured the cardigan in place with fashion tape to not show any bra or bra strap when I moved around. Unless you REALLY have no way around needing to use this, I probably would recommend looking into a different means of supporting your breasts. Very uncomfortable

This is the first roll of gaffer tape Ive ever purchased so I cant make comparisons to any other brands, but I can say that I dont imagine another brand could be better. I needed this tape to do a couple last-minute gigs running sound for a band who were bringing their own PA to venues that didnt have their own. With a combination of the bands and my own equipment we ran 4 drum mics, 3 vocal mics, bass and guitar amp mics, and a keyboard direct out along with 3 wedge monitors and 2 mains speakers, and used the gaffer tape to keep things relatively clean and held in place so no one tripped over anything on the dinky stages. The tape did its job superbly, nothing got shifted around during the shows, and we were able to keep the cables out of the bands way. Even though the tape held very securely to the wood and linoleum surfaces the cables were run across it lifted off easily, and most importantly left no gunk on my mic cables or on the floor, and even on a wooden end table in a little alcove by the stage where I had set up my mix position. Also during setup it was very easy to tear off the pieces I needed and never once had to use a blade. This is high quality gaffer tape that I wouldnt hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Ill be the first to admit it. I just didnt get it at first. I didnt get this whole infatuation with gaffer tape. What the heck is gaffer tape anyway? Dont compare gaffer tape to duct tape like I did to a gaffer tape believer or youll spend the next 30 minutes of your life listening to how gaffer tape is used to secure all kinds of stuff to all sorts of other kinds of stuff. Dont be surprised if the person telling you this also tries to sneak in that Swiss doctors believe gaffer tape can cure cancer. Oh, and apparently its hand woven by monks that live in an isolated monastery somewhere. At the prodding of my gaffer-tape-friend, I purchased a role. I used it. Sure, it seems like good tape. But I still didnt get the hype. Then, a few days ago I re-watched the movie Snatch--you know, the one where Brad Pitt plays a bare-knuckled boxer-periwinkle-blue-caravan-salesman--and a light bulb went on in my head. I totally get gaffer tape now.....but its named the wrong thing. Gaffer tape should be called Gypsy tape! The whole point of this tape is to hold things in place for just a little while, and then be removed with no trace--just like a band of roving gypsies. Anyway, I try to use my gypsy tape as often as I can. If I find myself reaching for a roll of duct tape, I stop and ask myself if gypsy tape would be better. Im trying real hard to be a convert....Im just not there yet. Maybe its because I didnt go to film school or play the guitar. ####UPDATE 11/17/2016#### So I finally had a need to use gypsy tape where duct tape was not the best choice. I lost (well, maybe my kids lost it) the battery cover for my TV remote and I was going crazy having the batteries fall out all the time. I had used a piece of duct tape (at least it was black tape so it sort of blended with the color of the remote) but it left gooey stickiness behind. After cleaning it up, I applied some Gaffer tape and its been great! No messy, sticky residue left behind.

I can confirm that this is a quality tape. Does not leave residue Real fabric feel Removes easily when needed Wheres well to many surfaces. I mostly use this tape for securing power cables and microphone cables to reduce the risk of tripping hazard

Excellent for hundreds of reasons. Better quality than other brands. Better than Amazon basic tape (residue). Keep buying again and again.

Its gaffers tape, what do you expect!?!
