2" x 12' Roll 3M Fluorescent Yellow Green Reflective Hazard Warning Emergency Vehicle Safety Marking Tape 983-23 ES

So apparently capitalism has created huge markets for every conceivable product...and I had to do a few hours of research to learn that all reflective tape are not created equal, and the rating on this roll of tape is THE BEST AVAILABLE. It has the widest reflective angle, DOT legal, and all weather adhesion. I do recommend cleaning (and letting it dry) your surfaces with rubbing alcohol before adhering. I put little strips of tape all over my tiny gray car, so other drivers can see me better in the day and night! They even stick on my rims! Pretty regularly I get people asking me about why I have this tape on my car, so if you want to have a conversation starter as well as a huge improvement in safety, get this tape!

I like that the tape is two inches wide giving it a larger reflective surface. My home is located on a curved road in the country and it's very dark at night. I used the tape to mark my garbage cans so the drivers can see them at night.

This is definitely a geniune 3M product and is a reasonable value, but there is actually a lot of nuance in reflective products that is very easy to overlook and cause confusion. 3M has three different classifications of reflective products, each differing in reflective efficiency and durability. This particular product is of their "diamond grade" variety, which is both the highest quality and most expensive, but is also only designed for flat-surface application on street signs and critical vehicle markings. Unfortunately, the trade-off of extreme brightness comes at the cost of flexibility because the technology only works with a very rigid and intricate plastic casing. If you're only looking for good reflectivity that you can stick to a variety of surfaces and curves, you'll probably want to look for tapes or sheets from 3M's 680 series, which is very flexible and much easier to work with (and still very bright). If visibility is a top concern, however, this can work. Its real selling point is its ability to reflect light at 90 degrees, meaning it still reflects at almost maximum output even when viewed from tthe side. While it is astronomically thick and difficult to apply, it is still cuttable with vinyl products (given enough patience with several passes). When done well, the added conspicuity is pretty incredible.

The best period. If you’re looking for reflective tape to make you be seen at low light situations this is the one. super sticky adhesive and best reflective property of any other kind. Only one con on this one is that it will not bend corners or any other uneven surfaces, if will ONLY work on flat and smooth surfaces like a cars panels or door. I’ve bought many other lower priced reflective tapes and tried them all before buying this one, I wish I bough this at the first place but could not swallow the price. It’s expensive but worth it, and I found a lower price somewhere else.

OMGosh! Amazing tape. It WON'T come off and is sickly reflective. I don't even need reflective tape anymore but bought another roll just in case I do.

This reflective tape began peeling within 3 days. I installed it on a smooth surface aluminum trailer. Double-washed application site with acetone, allowed an hour to dry / evaporate. Then applied tape (~70 degrees, 18% humidity), massaged with dry cloth. Even still, tape began peeling at edges. What a pitty!

Bought this for the motorcycle to wake people up. Tape is sturdy it's thicker than expected, bright and has great adhesive. Photos were taken in garage at night without flash and with flash. Disregard small reflection at bottom of panniers, I already had a small piece of silver SOLAS tape attached to each panniers.

I didn't find the stiffness an issue on my 2004 Tacoma bumper which is pretty straight. Easy application, affordable, and effective reflection. All good.

I've been pasting reflective tape on my cars for the last 15 years and this one strikes me as the most reflective I've come across. Costs 3-4x more than the generic name, made-in-you-know-where tapes from the neighborhood hardware shops, but is 3-4x more reflective. Why skimp on something that could save lives? Adhesive on it is also strong, and as others have noticed, it is semi rigid so won't wrap around sharp edges or bends easily. This purchase is worth many times what i paid for it.
