regarding aluminum tape

Not sure what brand it is, didn't know there was more than one. Haven't used in in 9 years or so. When I was first starting out (before I knew better) I used it in lieu of thumbtacks on the clear ends of heat tape in my racks to adhere it to the rack. Not only did it come off in pieces, but t left sticky clear globs that would simply not come off. EVER. I have since moved on to IMO the much superior electrical tape and thumbtacks.

Last night I removed 4 UTH's and several pieces of polystyrene from my tubs with no problems. I just checked my roll to see what brand it was, all it says is "IPG- Intertape Polymer Group", if that helps any...

I get my foil tape from Home Depot also, and it does NOT come off easily. Packing tape works just as well, and leaves less residue (in my experience).

I've always had a hard time with Foil Tape! Maybe it's the Canadian brands giving us a hard time. :P

i got foil tape for the tubs i set up and it works fantastic, no residue and comes off in one piece for the most part, i got the home depot stuff was like 8 bucks a roll and was for heating and ventilation (thought to my self sounded perftect) and iv had no problemss and have removed/adjusted the stuff with no problems
