Pictured are rolls with widths of 1", 2", 3", 5" and 12".

This thin, double-sided tape is basically an acrylic adhesive that is appled using peel away backing that passes Oddy tests consistently. It comes in widths from 1/4" to 48".

It has a variety of uses. For example use it for flattening down fabric to decks or build-ups in display cases.

One of the neatest things about it is that you can put it on the back of any material you choose and cut it in strips and you have instant tape.
Probably one of the most obvious application is with Marvelseal.
With this as a peel-off backing you make your own barrier tape – thinner widths are used for backs of frame packages – wider to seal case or crate interior corners. Also you can make Tyvek tape, Felt liners, and under some conditions it can be used to adhere foam like Volara.
