I bought this tape for use in packing/shipping packages. It does a really poor job of sticking to the surfaces of cardboard boxes. It takes me at least two layers to ensure that the adhesive will actually take to the box. For light-duty jobs this tape is probably fine. If I'm shipping a package cross-country it fails miserably. I'll use up what's left of the package. But from now on I'm going 3M. You get what you pay for...
