Would this reflective tape work good on a kayak?

i'm not extremely sure of it's marine heartiness. i used mine on what's now my winter motorcycle helmet- adhered on a glossy finish, it's been through some cold with light rain conditions & has done fine so far with no lift, but it has not been through a lot of extreme weathering either. for that you may consider the type of reflective tape stickers like the ones applied to emergency & hazard vehicles. this particular one would appear as a pretty thin line from distance; up close it's like a thick pinstripe.

If you can figure out how to mount the unit and the transducer on a kayak there is no reason why it wouldn't. I've got it on a 10' aluminum skiff, used a small 12 volt battery - the type commonly used on lawn tractors and it works great.

I'm no expert, but I would think it would work fine. The roll is plenty long enough for that length. Depending on the width of the slit, you might need to layer and overlap the tape. It has worked great for me on my RV with no sign of leaking.

I think it would be fine for kayaking... all of the items are wrapped together in the foil and then wrapped very tightly with the cord.

It could work as long the window is (squeaky) clean before you apply the tape. You have to be careful when peeling it off especially if your window has a film on it.

I don't know. This tape is similar to ordinary double sided Scotch tape except for the width. Suggest a test with any single sided tape to see if it sticks or pulls loose. Then make your judgement.

The material is very reflective. If applied correctly it should provide a nice reflective surface but I don't think it would equate to the same reflection you get from a mirror.

Hard to keep it attached to the kayak when on uneven surfaces. I would say no

Hi KO, it depends on the type of plastic used in the shower pan. It will work for more than just the HDPE plastic of a Kayak, but you need to know the exact type you are repairing so you get the right type of filler rods and use the proper techniques. Check out the Urethane Supply Company website for more welders, more types of filler rods, and instructional videos and how to videos.

I don't now that this tape is actually 'waterproof' but the adhesive is very durable and sticky, so I think it may work. Try it out and then post your results.

Yes, they are waterproof. Thusly, they will continue to glow if wet. They will stick to duct tape if the surface is dry when applying. I don't know for certain if duct tape will attach to kayak, that parts up to you.

not sure, but i would 1sr scuff the area you will use for the tape and apply the tape during warm weather for best stick on

Unlikely. I could see you taping it on a tear on a tent that has already been set up, but otherwise I imagine this tape won't last very long for wear and tear. This is meant to stick well to skin, and it certainly does its job.

I used it on my boat, Gives off a decent reflection . don't know how you would mount it because no bracket or holes to screw down. I glued mine in place

This isn't really supposed to be a long term tape, but yes it could work. It sticks enough and is flexible. It would also depend on the application- is it going to get wet/cold/hot? That will make a huge difference.

I have used this tape in an automotive application. The adhesive is very sticky. My opinion would be that gravity would hold the tape in position and any water creeping between the tape would dry during a heat cycle before it could loosen the adhesive. Applied over properly prepped plastic, it wouldn't let any water in between anyway. My only problem was the aluminum separating from the adhesive-imbedded fiberglass.

Absolutely. I used it to cover my van windows in the desert and it worked great. One caveat -- I installed this outside, covering the windows and it is VERY reflective. Your neighbors might not be pleased.
