No me gusto Batallé muchisimo con esta cinta 🥲

Sehr kräftiges Band, verwende es zum Aufspannen von Aquarellpapier

XFasten Reinforced Gummed Kraft Paper... Perfect for custom packaging, adheres very well to different materials and doesn't curl once wet. The width is perfect, I don't feel like I have to double tape like standard 2 inch tape. This one is my new packaging best friend!

I sell books. Each week I package 6-8 Home Depot small boxes (16X12X12). Books are heavy. Each small box weighing up to 50 pounds. I was using clear tape and then a couple of strips of duct tape for reinforcement. I found this cost savings alternative and all I can say is wow. It is so worth the money. I now only use this tape and nothing else to seal my boxes. It makes for a much more professional job. The fiber/thread reinforced tape is super strong and literally BONDS with the cardboard...becoming one. You have to activate each strip with water. I found a spray bottle works best. If you don't fully wet the tape it will have areas not activated. So the key to spray a nice fine mist over the whole area and lightly rub it down with you fingers before applying the tape. Too much water will wash a way the glue. Too littler will not activate it. You will get the hang of it after a couple boxes and then it just becomes second nature. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT.
