The problem with non-bike-specific tapes like medical adhesive or strapping tapes is that removing them cleanly is problematic. Velox is very popular and the thin plastic types like those from Continental are nice if space is tight in narrow rims. They are thinner and slicker than the fabric types and tire mounting can be a lot easier.
