Transparent Duct Tape?
« on: September 03, 2013, 10:43:53 PM »
Are you guys aware that this exists?  I was doing a search on Amazon.com and found that you can buy Transparent Duct Tape!!  I can think of a ton of uses for this.  Though, before I go investing in a few rolls, has anyone used it? 

If you have used it, how transparent is it?  Does it work as well as the regular duct tape?

Here's a link to the duct tape I found on Amazon.com - http://amzn.to/1dESUcz

That's interesting. Is it actual duct tape or just really strong packing tape?

Let me now how it works.  ... And no more putting new glass in broken windows !!  

You might be a redneck if all your windows are made of clear "ducktape"  !! (With apologies to Foxworthy!)

Doug is correct. It actually is like a packing tape.

It is not a cloth-like texture and the glue is different as well. It feels remarkably like a cellophane. I always end up having to cut it rather than tearing it.

From my experience, it is not as strong as the standard duct tape, either.
