Tape...

I am going to write a blog about different types of tape, only because I have no idea whatsoever about what to write about...

Double-Sided Tape:

Double-sided tape is a type of tape which has adhesive on both sides. WOW. It was made to stick two lightweight surfaces together. Double sided tape is most of the time more effective than normal tape with sticking objects paper, cardboard and arts and crafts. This allows for neater looking projects and better craftsmanship. Also double-sided tape is really good for grip replacement. E.g the handle of a hammer or steering wheel of a car.

Duct Tape:

Duct tape, NOT DUCK TAPE, is a vinyl, fabric-reinforced, multi-purpose adhesive tape with a soft and tacky pressure sensitive adhesive. Duct tape was originally developed during World War II in 1942 as a waterproof sealing tape for ammunition cases.

Masking Tape:

Masking tape is a type of adhesive tape made with an easy-to-tear backing (usually paper) and a removable pressure sensitive adhesive. It is used mainly in painting, to mask off areas that should not be painted.
