Licky-Sticky Tape

Post by prospero »

Quite a few years ago I bought a few boxes of nice 4" wide gummed paper tape. I was nice stuff. Good and thick and great to work with. Every since, the company concerned have called every few weeks to see if I wanted more. Been telling them for years that I bought a large quantity to get it at the right price and I have stacks of it left. I'm on my last roll now, So last time they rang I said "Yes! I would like some more." Then it transpired that they don't do it anymore..... :(

Anyone know where to get good quality gummed tape? I like 4" wide, but 3" would be OK. I have tried stuff from various wholesalers, but it's all been very poor quality. OK for general packaging maybe but not for framing.

i have their catalogue - more tapes than you shake a sick etc.

guess the one your after is gummed (needs moisture) 3" £4.30 for 200 mtrs boxed and case discount for case - call em they are very good to deal with. ask for a catalogue as they have things others do not stock or have discontinued. above is item 101 on page 22 of the catalogue (june 2009) which is the latest 8) 8) why waste money on catalogues.
when all is said and done - there is more said than done.
