Did the job excellent only time will tell only just done job wanted it for 2days ago

Quick and effective and provides a good finish

Used this behind radiators at the edges. Good advise from previous users in that cut it to size with the backing on as otherwise it sticks whilst you're sizing it up. Did with 2 people so 1 could hold the edges whilst the other took the backing off. Works a treat and sticks well.

Easy to use, I underestimated how much I needed but it arrived in 24hr each time I ordered it.It’s really good and there’s a strange satisfaction when it’s all done.

I found this product by searching for 'speed tape'. Certainly, I did not expect to find real speed tape, but I thought I might find a reasonable substitute. I was attracted to this product by its width as I had a job on hand that would benefit from a 100 mm wide tape.The positive aspects of this tape are its width and its adhesion. The negative aspects are that it is very thin and has a backing tape that must be removed.I found the backing tape inconvenient: it is difficult to remove and when it comes off, the metal part tends to curl up and self-adhere. Great care is needed. In fact, using this product is very like using narrow sheets of sticky-back plastic and requires a similar technique.The metal tape itself is very flimsy, tearing easily. I imagine it is assumed that it will be used in layers and, in act, it would probably conform quite well to irregular shapes. But if you are looking for a sturdy reinforcing tape to cover surface damage, this not really the product you need.

The paper backing is great because it makes the tape easier to apply if you get the right angle. Would recommend keeping the tape on and lining up where you need to tape and unravelling as you go rather than just pulling off all of the backing at once! Very adhesive and sealed nicely.

i have used this shiny tape for various things, it is a long roll, very adhesive and wide. Being Alluminium it does take some patience, but i think this roll is as good as any. I have used it for covering my plastic mudguards when restoring a bicycle to add a bit of a retro look. I have also used about 15m plus over featheredge wood borders to deter slugs, it will almost certainly preserve the wood, stand upto the weather and very adhesive. The skill evolves, if trying to get a really smooth finish it is difficult but i think that will be the case with any adhesive tape. Develop technicque and concentrate on preparation ie remove all obstacles, have clear working area as you really need to avoid the tape sticking to itself due to extreme adhesiveness. I prefer and recommend highly adhesive as with this you know it ain't gonna peel or fall off. You have loads so if you aren't totally happy with a job you can always have another go and another and another if you wish as you get so much. you can cut it into small precise shapes first. If i can raise my skill levels i think you could do some amazing designs and creativity with this. I guess the target is things like vents, and ducts and stuff but it could be used in a more ornamental way though it is difficult to get an absolutely perfect, crease free finish on anything with curves but that is down to physics. I have just reordered mainly for gardening projects but might just cover everything with it as i love so much, car, bike, laptop everything!

Prompt delivery, and very pleased with the purchase
