"I can write on the corner of the tape either in pen, pencil, highlighter or sharpie if needed and when I go to read the text is perfectly legible. I printed my postage from a stamp company on an officejet printer, so the text would smear if it became wet."

"Just note these are the SMALL rolls... which isn't that clear from the pic (or estimating how much 800 inches is in your head). They're at the other link (a little more expensive, but if you hate the tape screech noise... check it out). Scotch Sure Start Shipping Packaging Tape with Refillable Dispenser, 1.88 in x 38.2 yd (3450S-RD) (These are 38.2 yard on the larger roll - just less tape than the normal large roll)."
"Unlike other people let me start by saying that I bought this item at full price and received no compensation for writing this review.i do a lot of packaging and this tape is tough, I have gone thru several rolls and it did not tear on me and get stuck on the roll like other brands, when taping boxes it is tough and sticks well, each roll is ready to go on its own dispenser, a winner product ..."
"I always take the paper place holder out of the area by the cutter, but I can never thread the tape INTO that same location, which would hold the tape in place."
"(Those may be better for large boxes or people with large hands, but I find this tape with the cutting edge built-in to the roll to work better for me.)."
"In all of the years I've been shipping I've only had one bad batch (and I've been through a lot of tape) and the company easily fixed my problem. Don't be lured to by some of the other cheap tapes if you really want to make sure your packages arrive to their destination!"
"However, with six rolls of tape, I can do more than just pack and wrap leftover yard sale items offered to unsuspecting online shoppers."
"I've gone cheap a few times and tried out different brands from the dollar store or other stores with cheap, off-brand tape, and I have regretted it every time!"

Best Duct Tape

Gorilla 6035180 Tape, Black Duct Tape, 1.88" x 35 yd, Black, (Pack of 1)
Great for indoor or outdoor use and made to stick to Rough, uneven, unforgiving surfaces like wood, stone, stucco, plaster, brick and more.
Reviews
"I was specifically interested in the adhesiveness and tensile strength of the 3 leading brands of black duct tape. The rubber adhesiveness when tested on a variety of surfaces did not reveal a discernible difference between the 3 brands. As one comment said, “It’s ALIVE!”. The Scotch tape is crinkled or wavy on the roll and if cut cleanly, the edge is hard to locate. For years, at the end of the fireplace season, I have placed a heavy tarp over the top of a brick chimney and secured it with black duct tape. I took several samples of each brand and folded the tape, adhesive side in, creating double-thickness strips 1/2-inch wide. I placed one end in a bench vice with padded jaws so the metal would not break the tape. A new Rapala digital fishing scale hooked to the Vice-Grip would reveal at what weight the strip of tape would break. The Scotch TOUGH Heavy Duty Tape broke at a mere 5 pounds."
"I used this to wrap around the joint between to bee hives in order to prevent wind from getting in... within a day, the tape came off of the painted wood and did not hold."
"My grandson was desk corner high and just learning to walk. He has even HUNG from them and picked his feet up off the ground, he's 30+ pounds."
"I like that it is black and blends in better than Duct Tape's normal silver color."
"This stuff sticks like crazy and I've used it in the place of other repair tapes and it seems to work just as well or better."
"I could tape the bumper on my car with it, hit 100mph and that sucker wouldn’t budge."
"This stuff is the bomb, it really works well."
"Best quality tape out there..."

Reviews
"I also used this tape to protect my carpet, because at the top of my staircase landing there is carpeting that butts up against the bottom rail that also needed to be stained."
"Yes, easy to see and soon we may remove that tape."
"Next time I paint I wouldn't wait until the last coat before taking it off as this time I found some of the paint on the edge of the woodwork came up when I removed it."
"I have used this painting tape for years. NOTE ON PAINTING WALLS WITH BASEBOARDS. This painters tape works very well when painting walls with baseboards IF the baseboards are snug against the wall. It is not suitable to use this painters tape on baseboards that are NOT snug against the wall due to wavy walls or because the wall is moderately textured."
"Easy to tear, leave zero residue, it's even kind of "malleable" to go around curves and other challenging surfaces."
"This tape does as it advertises."
"The ScotchBlue Painter's Tape was exactly what I needed for repainting the trim throughout my house."
"I ordered this to use for skateboard art which I realize is s smaller size project than painting rooms, trim, etc., but it has been far too frustrating. Going the cheap route is no reason to put yourself through all this frustration and wasted time picking off tiny pieces of tape which do not peel off initially."

Reviews
"The protective paper easily peels off the tape which is a plus but also a minus because it often comes off before you are ready (during cutting and handling) which results in the tape bunching up and sticking to itself. In the future, I’ll stick with the Duck carpet tape (npi) unless I plan on removing the tape."
"Works perfectly, easy to use and best of all won't damage my 100-year old hardwoods."
"I also have a piece of thick plywood that I painted and insulted to cover our fireplace opening (don't want the kiddos messing with the fireplace)."
"Two-sided adhesive film tape proved to be an excellent choice for fastening edges of a sheet of Vyco drawing board cover."
"No residue works very well for deterring pets from jumping up on furniture or counters."
"I remember reading that the tape was easy to remove, so I guess I'll find out if it rips the paint off the wall."
"The repeated hyperbolic emails from the seller, asking for a review, have been nice."
"Honestly I haven't used it for the reason I bought it yet but something came up which required this kind of application so I decided to try it and it worked and so far it is still sticking."
