Double sided Carpet Tape???

I use the blue double faced duct tape that lowes sell. Routing zero clearance inserts with that tape held pretty good. My only gripe is I wish it wasn’t as wide as it is. I usually cut it in half since I don’t need that huge of a piece.

I use carpet tape all the time, and have always been satisfied with it’s performance. I’ve never actually tried turner’s tape, so I can’t offer a comparison.

I used the rhino tape ONCE. I had to use alcohol to get the gooo off, what a mess.

Agreed with Terri on the Rhino tape! Stay away!

The goop was everywhere and impossible to remove – had to use sticky stuff remover.

Our Lowes carries a couple of brands of double sided tape that work well for me. One is the blue stuff (Shurtape) mentioned by Kevin and the other is a clear, thinner material (Scotch brand).

I’ve always just gotten the carpet tape that they sell at Lowe’s back near the carpet area. Works great.

I sell carpet tape at my floorcovering store and find it works very well on all my woodworking projects. If you’ve got a small biz-floorcovering specialty store nearby, it likely will be cheaper than the big box store.

I use the Lowe’s carpet tape, sold in the carpet area (not where the masking tape is). Last I bought was DUCK brand. IIRC it was a bit cheaper than the double-sided tape in the adhesives area.

Thanks for all the suggestions I will have try Lowes or HF my Home Depot didn’t have much a bit disappointed in that.

I use the blue stuff from Lowe’s. I forget the brand but it works very well and does not leave anything behind.

I got mine from Orchard Supply. Good stuff but a little more expensive. Our Lowes and HD do not carry it
