    Question Foil Tape?

    Where do you guys get foil tape for your flexwatt? My dad ran around to alot of auto-parts stores and everything they had there was really small and $10 a piece. He only went to auto-parts stores though because that's the only place he's seen it at : We read somewhere last night that you could use duct tape instead, but I'm not quite sure because wouldn't the heat over time make the adhesive all nasty?

    On a side note, Pomona was awesome I met Kat and got my little Spider girl (GORGEOUS), found Heather and got a fantastic male pastel, and had a little cash left over and got a normal female with hawt patterns

    +1 on Walmart. They were the cheapest out here.

    The stuff smells quite a bit so be prepared to air it out for a while.

    Re: Foil Tape?

    I buy the stuff at Lowes. It's a roll similar in size to duct tape, and you can find it near the heating and ductwork.

    Re: Foil Tape?

    Thanks guys. I honestly have no clue why my dad had it set in his head that the only place to get it was auto-parts stores o.O we walked right into Home Depot and got a huge 3in roll for ten bucks.
