I use gaffers tape every day. Gaffers tape is expensive. It is designed to be removed without leaving a residue. It is designed to hold well for a short period of time. I have found it does not hold well unless the surface you are taping is clean and dry. It doesn't hold up well when exposed to the sun for a few days. That being said
