GENERIC 18 m Heavy Adhesive Grey Duct Tape

Generic Heavy Adhesive Grey Duct Tape (18m x 96mm) is one of the most versatile tools available to mankind. It can be used for everything from repairs on HVAC systems to emergency bandages for animals. The main drawback with it is that it comes in a limited number of colors and variations. This is understandable, as duct tape is generally used for construction or repair work, not art and crafts. If you need something to finish off your latest macaroni sculpture, or you just want to spruce up your desk at work with a personalized duct tape roll, you'll need to find some heavy adhesive duct tape.

Generic Heavy Adhesive Grey Duct Tape (18m x 96mm) is a nearly miraculous product. It can quickly repair just about anything, it's easy to find just about anywhere, and it only costs a few bucks for a roll. But sometimes there are problems with duct tape that only reveal themselves after you've already bought the roll. If you're looking for some high-quality tape with more features, though, here are three to try.

There's a lot of confusion about what type of duct tape is best suited for particular applications, so let's start by clearing the air: there are only two types of duct tape—standard adhesive and heavy adhesive. Both are made of the same ingredients: cloth, rubber, synthetic rubber, and sometimes plastic. Standard adhesive duct tape has a thinner backing than heavy adhesive duct tape, allowing more layers to be placed on top of it before the adhesive layer becomes visible. This makes it ideal for quick projects where a few layers will do the job nicely, such as securing your car battery or taping together large gift boxes for moving. Heavy adhesive, on the other hand—you guessed it.
