XFasten Double Sided Carpet Tape for Area Rugs 2 Inch x 30 Yards Heavy Duty Anti Slip Rug

This carpet tape is the real deal but the reason I'm such a fan of it is because of the applications I've used it for aside from sticking rugs to the floor. Which by the way, it does INSANELY WELL. This is kind-of like krazy glue for your carpets or rugs ... with the added benefit of you being able to remove it whenever you pretty want to. Although, don't be fooled. This stuff is strong and it takes effort to remove it from the floor. It's so strong, it's torn off the perimeter fabric around some rugs of mine when I was trying to do things quickly, so I've learned that when I'm removing it, to go slowly. Once you use it to keep carpets in place, remember that you'll always have to vacuum AROUND them because they won't go easily, lol. The end result is a flawless appearance. No one would ever know you're using it and you can rest assured knowing no one will be busting their ahhhs thanks to slippery floors. Now, onto the real fun stuff: You know the pain of having to remove something sticky from a hard surface? It can be a nightmare, right? Well, believe it or not, this tape actually helps! This tape is sticky as hell. If it's too long in your hands, some residue of the sticky-stuff will remain on your hands or fingers but the best way to get rid of it is to do this: Get another little piece of tape, tape it to something so one side is no longer sticky and use the sticky side to remove the sticky leftover pieces on your hand. Yes, seriously, it's that simple. This stuff is so sticky that it has the power to pick up other sticky residues. I wish I had it when I had to remove my car inspection sticker so that the new one could be put on, I have a feeling it would have worked like a charm. Also, the value for money is crazy. I usually buy the 2x30 one and it lasts me easily 2 years. BY THE WAY, as far as ease of cutting, it isn't easy to cut. So, don't ever use scissors trying to cut this, you will just drive yourself nuts instead. Use a BOX CUTTER only. I hope this helps! Read more

Best carpet double side tape ever. I use it for everything. It works great during elf season to stick that little guy anywhere. Also taped a banner on a float and it stayed very well. The quality is great for the price and the amount you get. It’s keeps rugs from sliding even when the dog and kids are running. Read more

This double sided tape is great. It holds my rug in place just as I wanted it to. I bought it first in the 2 inch width but decided this next time to go with the 4 inch & I'm so glad I did. It holds twice as well. If you have a rug on a ceramic or wood floor, & it slips all the time, this is the tape for you. It holds tight, wears well, and is fairly easy to work with. It does help to have someone help you when trying to cut it to size or placing it where you want it once you pull the white top off to put were you need it because it is very sticky. Read more

Works great! Sticks well but leaves no residue. Even used it on our dining room table to help keep the table cloth in place. Read more

I love this stuff! I am 43 and wish I used this year's ago. I've used some other carpet tapes in the past and gave up. This one works great, doesnt leave a residue if you have to move the rug and its very easy to use. The first time I didnt have the straid edge and suffered with scissors. USE A STRAIT EDGE TO CUT IT SAVE THW SCISSORS!! I've used this on 7 rugs and had to wash one and move another. Very easy and i might leave the tape next time I have to wash one of them as the usually stay on the flore not the rug when pealed up. I've used on 2 washable water rugs for dog water and a harder nicer rug. I love this product. Doesn't move at all even with a toddler a crazy puppy running a muck! On the fluffier shag rugs that have a weak backing i would recommend more tape in the middle as the rugs are not always seen across. Read more

I bought it to tape down some thick anti slip rubber mats but unfortunately they barely adhered to them and I had to nail them instead. It did work well on the welcome mat though. The welcome mat had latex or a thin rubber backing and it seemed to stick to that. The adhesion to the welcome is good enough that it doesn't slide around when walking on it but isn't strong enough that the back of the mat rips off when I try removing the mat from the tape. They tape is good at sticking to the wood floor and was easy to remove right after. It did not leave any residue on the floor but it was only on for a few minutes so it might be different after a few years. It was however a pain to cut these with scissors as they kept gumming it up so it would not get a clean cut and it left residue on the scissors but I eventually got it off. Read more

I use the narrow version for temporary bonding of wood in the shop. Useful there for holding patterns to large sheets for routing, cutting, sanding, etc. I also have used to bond a bowl blank to a sacrificial board on my lathe faceplate. The wider carpet tape is great for that purpose. (Turners, please realize that I do not recommend putting a lot of pressure into the wood when turning with this setup.) I use it to hold small area rugs to both a porcelain floor tile and a natural slate stone floor with excellent results. Leaves no stain on either floor surface. There are many unadvertised uses for this product - just use your imagination, and think "alien tape". HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for versatility, durability, ease of use, and VALUE for your dollars.
