This tape Staples Standard Grade Paper Packaging Tape 2.8" x 125 yards was exactly what I was looking for to create hand-made art books and journals; making dust covers for frame back and beaded wall hangings. I chose this product for its' strength flatness and ease of use. The only draw back is that I had to buy a huge roll and really only needed a small fraction of it. But I am pleased with my final projects and will utilize it for other craft/art projects and its' intended use reinforcing boxes.
I USE THIS Reinforced fiberglass tape for all my shipping. never have I had a complaint about the shipping boxes tearing open or breaking apart during shipping. And you know UPS can be pretty rough sometimes.I frequintly ship accross country and I need a Reinforced fiberglass tape to secure my packages. this product is it.
Was using more than 6 rolls of clear shipping tape a week this tape is really worth buying ... only using one of these now in the same amount of time and same amount of shipments!!
I wet the tape and apply it and press very firmly. Still the edges and sometimes center lift up. I wet gently and try again but end up using clear tape to hold down the packing tape. Why bother with the packing tape if I need wide clear tape to tape it down? I tried different amounts of moisture to see if perhaps I needed more or less. I have yet to find the proper ratio.
Great product for the price. Dependable for use in closing packages for shipping. Have not had any problems with people saying their package arrived damaged.
Excellent strong paper tape meeting USPS requirements for shipping via Registered Mail. Adhesive gets sticky quickly with minimal water applied with a sponge. Tape is very strong and the cost is very reasonable.
