I see that others have already responded. Called 3M - they told me to also prep the surface with their special surface coating. So, I used with the special 3M surface prep on the surface - then the 3M tape - to hold a large sunroof wind deflector. Still holding.

Unfortunately I can't say I've used Rescue Tape but have used a few other brands of silicone tape and this is the best IMO. It has strength and great fusion. I use it in most places that electrical tape would be used but love to use it on motorcycle applications since it is waterproof.

I have used 3L tape runners for years and prefer it to glue every time. The tape runner will only stay where you put it. Hope this answers your question.

I found that the 3M tape holds EXTREMELY well so far with no end in sight to them holding up. The key is to CLEAN the area you are going to stick it to with rubbing alcohol prior to peeling and sticking the pods. I have an A.R.E. cap on my truck so they aren't exposed to the weather or car washes so I can't make a true determination on the effectiveness of the 3M patch. Each pod comes with two holes in them for screws and can be used in conjunction to screw the pods to the liner. I didn't want to do that and will replace the tape if they come loose. Hope this helps and good luck....you won't be disappointed with this purchase. I found that the 3M tape holds EXTREMELY well so far with no end in sight to them holding up.

Actually, the 3M foam pads only hold it until the silicone sets. It's the silicone which makes the unit stick. Tip is to use all the silicone to create a gasket. Prep is important. Clean tiles with alcohol so there is no grease or oil to hinder the bond. If you are skeptical of the silicone amount given in the package buy an additional small amount of bathroom/kitchen clear silicone. Mask the area around the outside for a clean job and use the soapy finger trick to wipe off the excess to make a nice looking pro job.

This is more of a gasket type silicone and doesnt dry as rigid and hard as say the clear silicone look for specific type silicone that is for aquariums or is especially for use in sealing glass......it is usually right with other silicones made by Permatex at hardware store......or Amazon search it(havent tried that......but gonna right now...LOL)

I used it after I had wrist surgery and it does stick on the skin but I also had to wear something over it due swelling. It is like a real sticky piece of silicone.

Hey Caroline:Congratulations to a Macbook User.Yes, in my experience with three of these sleeves,each one has fit perfectly.I would think you are doing right.PS: if Jack's bottom clips broke off,I guess that's on Jack.Richard Miller(rrmiller40@gmail.com)

Based on MY experience with this tape, I was not at all satisifed. The "adhesive" is weak, the red liner that is to be peeled off is very difficult to remove, and overall, I was just not pleased. 3M makes better wall mount type of tape/adhesive, I'd look into those but if go with this one by Scotch, best of luck.

No it is not, however it is very similar. It has the same effects. I honestly think this brand is better because the wrap can actually stick to your body without tape or other adhesive.

Same thing except the plastic sleeve with twist top is much more user friendly. No more untwisting the stupid paper sleeve.

Danielle's answer is correct. In addition, I found that if you wet your fingers and rub the gel area prior to turning it on, it adheres better.

I dont know. This tape is great, because it does not have the adhesive back. I have been using it on a wound for seven months and it has been good.

Yes , I just bought this sleeve it was cheap and it fits well, I have only had it a few days but seems to be a good fit .http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0085B772A/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1

Yes. Silicone sleeve is pretty snug and doesn't come off easily which is great! I always just hand wash and never put it in the dishwasher as I fear that may ruin the sleeve.

The 3M Interior Transparent Weather Sealing Tape is indeed heavier than clear packing tape but also more of a flexible, "vinyl" kind of material. Packing tape will not conform to the transitions between glass and frame as well and I believe if left exposed to constant temperature changes, humidity and direct sunlight it would dry and become brittle, much the same as it does on cardboard boxes after lengthy periods. The 3M tape I applied to a bedroom window in April 2012 is still doing the job of sealing air leaks as well today, as when first applied. I just don't think clear packing tape would have lasted this long. As another posted replied, this tape is also nearly invisible once applied.
