Better than Sliced Bread Jul 21, 2010
By Donald W. Campbell
Wow, this stuff is go great, I plan to write a book... 101 things to do with rescue tape.
I originally purchased this to fix a leaking toilet. Worked wonders. I then went on to bigger things, like leaking kitchen sink drains (it was the leak that was bigger, not the toilet). But with the caveat that whatever you want to tape must let the rescue tape stick to itself, it is not adhesive like typical tape, it works as claimed.
I'm now on a mission to find new and exciting uses for the tape. So far:
If you tape the center pole of a typical office chair, your uncooperative coworkers can no longer raise or lower it from where you want it to stay. (Presumably this might fail if your coworkers weigh over 950 pounds, the limit of the tape's tensile strength).
Not really a high pressure application, but I noticed my AC drain was clogged. Normally, I use a garden hose and get wet during the flushing. Not anymore. I wrapped the end of the hose (not tightly like for pressure, but loosely to allow the tape to maintain full thickness) until it just about fit completely into the AC drain access, and then, using some stretching and pressure, I finished it off by tapering the edge to give a smoother, and wedge shaped profile. No more water on me, and AC drain is clog free.
Finally, my Dog's bowls are stainless steel with a rubber bumper bottom. Over the years, the rubber has stretched, although the steel is, well steel and stainless. I have laminate floors, so I did not want scratching, so... Out comes the rescue tape! I admit this one is a challenge, as you have to stretch out about 4' of tape to get all the way around the bottom of the bowl to self-seal. In a patriotic motif, I did one bowl in blue and another in red. I don't know if Sirius likes the colors, but I think he is probably color blind.
Having rededicated my life to finding unique uses for rescue tape, I'll update the review when I've gotten a few more.

Unbelievable Product Dec 12, 2009
By Gepetto
Hundreds of applications. It doesn't leave "sticky marks" like duct tape, it stretches....just a fantastic product. I just hope the price comes down as people discover this product and the volume goes up.

Wonderful tape! What happened to black? Mar 10, 2012
By smam
This is amazing stuff - we have old steam pipes in our basement - one sprung a leak and we wrapped it with this. Yes, used up alot of tape, but did not expect otherwise in order for it to make a good seal. That tape held for two years. Just wrapped it again and can hopefully buy another two years before replacing the pipe (good thing because we had to replace the boiler). A leaking steam pipe is wet, hot and under pressure. Very impressed.
But, what happened to the black color? Don't want to use bright blue. Am settling, but hope they bring the black back.
Rescued Me... Mar 25, 2012
By Melissa Mermaid
Time & again. I have them in all available colors so it's practically invisible for whatever I apply it to. Does almost all the things electrical and duct tape do without sticky residue. Is even reusable in the proper circumstances. AND WATERPROOF! I've even used it as a bumper around my cell phone to keep the case from cracking. From the second I found Rescue Tape, it became a miracle repair staple in my toolbox!

One more use for Rescue Tape... Jan 10, 2012
By P. D. Crump
Use this tape as an "overgrip" for your tennis racquet and you have a wonderful tacky surface that will last for months.
