This is a cool tape to make handles and such - it sticks to itself but you can peel it off easily:

Also for a different application - this Coban medical tape is very useful:

It has a stiffness that holds its position without being tacky or sticky. doesnt slip like an ace bandage might. great for covering bandages or wrapping ankles, etc
And "Kinaesthetic tape" (KT) also nice when recouping from twists and sprains...
- mattkrause 4y agoThe "Coban" (=cohesive bandage) tape is great, but I've only ever seen it used on animals, for whom it's also sold as "Vet Wrap". It sticks to itself, but basically nothing else, which is great for securing things to a hairy/furry limb.
- dtgriscom 4y agoI have a hairy/furry limb, and I hated when my HMO (temporarily) switched to using this tape. Always took some fur with it.
- mattkrause 4y agoHmmm...Maybe they dial back the stickiness even more for VetWrap. Ours is slightly tacky, but can't really pick up hair (have used it on myself in a pinch).
- kuang_eleven 4y agoThat first tape you mention looks identical to the "bondage tape" from the list. Very different application, but same stuff! I have also heard that it's used in veterinary practices, as it will not stick to fur.
- mbubb 4y agoI will never look at it quite the same…
- MerelyMortal 4y agoIt looks like CountyComm sold out. I remember the type items being different (actual mil-spec over-run type of stuff), and now it looks like they're just selling tacti-cool things now. They didn't use to have Twitter or Facebook share buttons on their comments (did they even have comments?), they didn't have a "VIP" program, carbon fiber combs, glow-in-the-dark patches that say "operator", etc. Good for them I guess, but oh well. I guess I'll never buy that Universal Cleaning Stick from them now.
- mbubb 4y agoyeah - I have bought a fair amount from them over the years - good lights and decent watches and pens
