Rescue Tape

busterb · 08-31-2015, 08:16 AM

I put 2 grab bars in my shower. Nice, shiny and slick as whatever. I was wondering how to fix , without wrapping with poly cord. A guy told me about rescue tape. Had a bit of trouble wrapping it due to my eyes. Just right to be wrong for bifocals. 100% better. Not cheap. 10 bucks for 12 feet.

I've seen ads for Rescue Tape. They make it look like magic.

Well I'll be damned, I bought three rolls of that in black, yellow, and clear, but it was labeled as glueless tape. I guess Rescue Tape is a brand.

never heard of it before, but it looks just like the kind of thing I need in the basement and in the car. Thanks Buster.

Sounds like good stuff. I'll hafta remember rescue tape. Wiki calls it self-amalgamating tape.

I found black at Harbor freight, 10' by 1" for 3.99 Called self bonding super tape.
Haven't used any yet, so no report.
