This vinal tape that we use now days realy shrinks up fast in the cold climates. I like the good old cloth friction tape best but is hard to find in my area.

How do you guys like the liquid tape. I have never used it.
 
I've used the liquid tape mostly as a moisture resistant coating, places like under trailers, wheel wells, trailer connectors... Places that get water blasted, prone to corrosion, pain in the rear to get to and do over!

But I can't bring myself to use it as a stand alone insulator. I prefer to use the liquid, then go over that with shrink tube where possible, tape as an alternative. Also when applying the final wrap of tape, I cut the tape, not just tear it off. That leaves it relaxed and won't start unraveling quite as soon.

I was looking at the Super 88 tape, sure enough the low temp rating is 0F. Never knew that... But that's not a real concern in Texas! God bless Texas! LOL
 
If you like friction tape, just go to Wallaby World (in season) and ask for "bat tape".

Have you looked at the cloth tape they sell in the pharmacy? Its white but cloth tape is pretty common for first aid kits.
 
3M brand liquid tape is meant to go on top of other tape. It is very carcinogenic and nasty to the skin. For a good tape Wall-Mart has 3M super 33 at a good price 3.50 a roll. That tape should not change once wrapped. Any electrical supply has friction tape.
