What are the dimensions of this tape?

This roll of Duck Original Cloth Tape measures 50mm (2 inches) in width and 25 meters in length.

Is this tape suitable for permanent repairs?

While strong, it's best suited for temporary repairs and general-purpose use. For permanent fixes, consider specialized adhesives or repair materials.

Can I use this tape underwater?

No, the tape is waterproof but not suitable for total immersion in water.

What surfaces does this tape stick to?

It adheres firmly to most common surfaces including wood, metal, plastic, painted surfaces, fabric, and drywall.

Does the silver color fade or stain?

The silver color is generally stable for indoor and outdoor use. Prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays might cause some fading over extended periods, but it is designed to be durable.

How should I store the tape when not in use?

Store the tape in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its adhesive properties.

Can this tape be painted over?

Yes, the cloth backing can typically be painted over once adhered, though testing on a small piece first is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Tape not sticking well

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, or grease. Press firmly and hold for a few seconds to ensure proper adhesion.

Tape leaving residue

For residue removal, try gently rubbing with a dry cloth. For stubborn residue, a mild solvent like rubbing alcohol can be used on a cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Difficulty tearing tape cleanly

While designed to tear by hand, a clean tear depends on the material and tension. Ensure you are pulling perpendicular to the roll and apply firm, quick pressure.

Tape losing stickiness over time

This can occur if stored improperly. Ensure the roll is stored in a cool, dry place and that the exposed adhesive is protected from dust.
