Product Description

Even better than the grey stuff! Gorilla Tape is twice as thick and sticks better to a wider variety of surfaces, even porous materials like brick, stucco, and concrete. A tough, reinforced backing and rugged, all-weather shell provide long-lasting adhesion. Use it once and you won't go back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Careful What You Wish For November 7, 2006

By P. Scott Pope TOP 500 REVIEWER

As the advertisements suggest, this tape will stick to brick and virtually any other surface. Be careful though, because it might just strip the paint upon removal. This was the painful lesson I learned when trying to temporarily hold some video cables to my wall and ceiling. Even when using a hair dryer to soften the adhesive, I was not able to prevent the paint from getting ripped off, no mater how gentle I was.

Despite my lack of success with the hair dryer, the only area where I have seen Gorilla Tape fail is in moderately-high temperature applications. For example, I wanted to use the tape to patch small leaks around the exhaust hose of a new portable air conditioner. The warm air would simply soften the adhesive over time, causing it to fall off.

It would be nice if a version of Gorilla Tape had nylon filaments, similar to strapping tape. While strong, Gorilla Tape does not have the tensile strength provided by such reinforcing fibers. This feature would then allow Gorilla Tape to be employed in a number of other applications where it could serve as a structural element instead of merely a bonding medium.

Pros

Excellent adhesive qualities

Cross woven fibers

Cons

Doesn't hold up in moderately high temperatures

No nylon filament reinforcement

Stickiness can make some applications difficult

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny January 13, 2012

By Dustin Farahnak TOP 500 REVIEWER

I first used these to repair a rental car's convertible roof.

I was amazed at the strength and the ease of use (that may sound silly for something as simple as tape, but it really is easier to use!). It was sticker and more pliable than duct tape. It was stronger and easier to apply.

There is no comparison to any other tape I've ever come across. This stuff lasts a long time and takes a ton of abuse. I have never been far from a roll, and I've found thousands of uses for it.

Also, it saves money in many cases, as you can use it once and it outlasts the cheap duct tape by many times over.

You can't go wrong with this stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Use for blisters October 26, 2009

By Grifter

I use Gorilla Tape primarily for blisters on long hikes and it works superbly. If I or someone in my party feels a blister forming, we slap on a piece of Gorilla tape and can continue the hike. The adhesive stays on your skin through sweat, heat and friction. Of course I use Gorilla tape for simpe home improvement projects as well and it rarely if ever fails on me.
