closest thing I can think of is gaffers tape, but it normally comes in 3" and wider rolls, and rather LONG rolls too, and is fairly expensive. its a cloth tape with a synthetic adhesive, normally matte black. its primary use is by theatrical stage electricians ('gaffers'), they use it to tape down wiring on the stage floor. its designed to peel completely clean after a month or two of use. its very sticky too. its probably too thick for use as rim tape, however.
