We moved recently and it appears my horde of electrical tape was lost somewhere along the line. Loading up on new stuff. What’s the good stuff these days? My prior stash lasted me 4 years, so I’m not in the know.

You stuck in in with something, and it will surface I predict.

I had an item that came with us in 2011 when we move here I just could not find. I musta looked thru every possible place in 7-8 years and figure it got tossed or something..

The trick is to look for something else... It got put in with a blended, one of those super blender for some reason. And I was going to toss the blender of give it to the kids. You could make soup in the thing from the friction of turbulence. You needed ear protection, anyone in the house did when you used it....

So yeah, look for something else....

Actually, the real good stuff is the silicone tape. I use 3M tape on many bars and a lot of bar wrap, but when a customer buys the high end tape, I use the silicone tape.

Same. Many colors from which to choose too!

The different color 3M tape is number 35. Not quite the same as Super 33+. I don’t really know what the difference is.

also 3M, the off brand stuff will lose its stickiness when it gets hot and start to unravel

3M 35 is for color coding.

As others said 3M, either 33 or 88+
