After years of constantly straightening my area rugs they stay in place and the tape is quality so far sticking perfectly and not having to replace as it loses holding power in higher traffic areas. Read more
I bought this tape to secure some area rugs that kept sliding around on my hardwood floors, and I am honestly impressed by the grip. It anchors them down completely—even with my dogs running over them, the corners don't lift or shift at all. A helpful tip for application: This stuff is extremely sticky (which is good!), but it means you have to be careful when peeling the backing. I found it easiest to stick the tape to the rug first, press it down firmly, and then peel the paper liner off slowly just before flipping it onto the floor. If you try to do it too fast, it can stick to your fingers or itself. It’s also thin enough that you don't feel a "bump" under the rug, which was a concern of mine. If you need a heavy-duty hold for high-traffic areas, this is the one to get. Read more
Trying to get my house ready to sell and decided to add rubber treads to my basement steps. When I calculated what I would need for 11 steps, 20 yards ended up being the right amount. I was able to put three vertical pieces on the rubber tread from the back up to where the tread begins to fold over. I added two smaller pieces on the back in between the vertical pieces. Next, I added a 24" piece to the rounded part of the wooden tread. I removed the top part of the tape and then carefully place the treads down. The tape is not permanent unlike a strong liquid adhesive so the next owners can remove by using a hair dryer to warm up with tape. The tape is not super thick yet durable enough to grab and hold onto everything. I just made sure I pushed down firmly when adhearing it to both sides. I used a sharpe razor blade to cut through the tape. Read more
A relative recommended this to me & at first I wanted to talk ugly using it but then I read to use a knife to cut. It works great! Do recommend. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is it is hard to cut. Read more
The rug in my Home Office kept rolling up and bending up each time I rolled my office chair, so I brought this carpet tape and it is excellent. My carpet has not moved since placing it several days ago. It sticks sticks really well, and it appears to be good value for the money. Currently, I cannot speak about any residue with removal because I have not tried to remove it. It seems to be serving its useful purpose. The color of the tape is clear underneath the white paper. So far, I can attest to making a good choice. Read more
Not really, but this is the most adhesive tape I’ve ever used. It’s very thin and won’t cause lumps under the carpet. Easy to peel the backing from the tape too. Read more
I’m going to give this 5 stars though I’d give it 4.5 if I could. I cut a half inch slice off the roll - just enough to put at the four corners of a rug to keep them from slipping on the tile. That works great. But because this tape is kind of thick and very sticky (as it should be) it leaves sticky residue on my scissors that I can only get off with rubbing alcohol and elbow grease. I wish they’d make this tape segmented so I could just take off a piece instead of having to cut it. Maybe I’m the only one that uses it this way thus the 5 stars. But, it works very well for keeping rugs from sliding on tile. I’ve used other grippers but they just don’t last long nor do they work nearly as well as this tape. Read more
I have the most stubborn 200% cotton rug that is constantly slipping and flipping over. This tape is the only thing that has successfully pinned my rug down and kept it down. It was easy to use, priced well, and has amazing grip. Worth every penny. Read more
