Is the tape safe to use on carpet? Wondering if it will leave a residue when it is removed?

9970 Indoor Carpet Tape 1.88-Inches x 36-Yards. This is the one I use for the carpet and I have been using it for years.

gosh, i dunno. i've never been inclined to use it for anything other than in my carpet cleaner. if there is no directive on the label, i would call/write the company.

My carpet cleaner says not to use anything except their recommended carpet cleaning fluid. I guess it depends on the individual manufacturer. I make the solution and spray heavily soiled areas by hand and it works great.

Clean as best as you can while wet and the rest will have to wear off. There might be a chemical solution bit it could ruin your carpet.

Gaffer's tape does not leave a residue on the items you're taping. I use it to tape extension cords down to the floor. It also doesn't damage the floor, and is typically allowed in any venue.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you because I didn't use the adhesive. I have it on carpet.

I used it on carpet and with a very large rug. It works great at keeping the rug down. I have lifted it up to see if residue was left and so far so good. I have only had it on for about 6 months so I'm not sure if residue would occur if left on for a long period but I'm happy with the results so far.

Yes it does leave residue when you use it. I personally use it for many uses, I found that it lasts better and longer than duck tape. It will hold for a couple of years.

Yes, I'm sure you could use it on carpet. I didn't try the tape that came with it, but you could just use that, or packing tape might work.

No it does not leave residue and yes the tape removes cleanly. A little tip is to try to remove gently by scraping the edge then lift upwards.

We have only used it inside on wooden floors and vinyl. It hasn't left any marks. We don't have carpet.

Samantha, I have used these tapes & removed them. I do not have them on any painted surfaces. I would guess they would not harm any painted surfaces

I wouldn't use the double-sided tape on carpet. It would probably cause damage. You could try looping masking tape to apply it to your floor, but if kids are running all over it it probably wouldn't last long.

Gaffers tape uses a superior adhesive for stage and production work. It pulls off clean leaving no residue unless left on for several days. If you're using this for taping down cables it also does not degrade the jacket on your cables like duct tape will.

It comes with gaffer tape, and I have it on medium pile carpet. The tape moves a little bit with the carpet, but the strip doesn't move.

Use Windex or Expo cleaner to clean the board, it takes off residue.The only mess issue we've had is that if you use too much Windex it runs down the board, which can potentially stain the carpet. Just be careful.
