good stuff August 5, 2010
SMG (CT USA)
I had a leak under my kitchen sink that originated from the faucet base. I bought this based on Amazon reviews and it did work. It was however very awkward to wrap around a larger area as it must be stretched and pulled and fuses to itself in a few seconds. I couldn't just tape up the inch that I needed to. It is not sticky like tape and would be much easier to use around a pipe. I probably should have just used silicone in a squeeze tube. It did work though and I have excess in case I ever need it again. Good product.

When I opened the box I was disappointed at how small a roll of tape I had bought.
But when I first found a use for it, I became a believer. This stuff is great to have around.
I have a leaky irrigation hose. I could either make a project of digging it up and replacing it, or I could patch it if I could find a patch method that would work easily. A short length of this tape, stretched and wrapped around the hose while it was spraying water, fixed the problem in a couple of minutes instead of a couple of hours. The patch has held up through several days worth of two hours' irrigation daily, and it's looking solid. I'm glad to to have the rest of the roll on hand for the future.
This tape is not a film with separate adhesive; it seems to be a homogeneous stretchy substance that melds to itself. So when you stretch it thin and wrap it around something, the layers fuse together and it becomes like a band around the thing you've wrapped. For shipping and storage, the tape is separated by layers of an ordinary plastic film; that's why the roll you see photographed looks like it has wrinkled edges. The separating film is much wider than the actual rescue tape itself, presumably to keep the rescue tape effectively separated from the next layer of it.

I wish i had known something like this existed ages ago. I have a small crack in the pipe under my kitchen sink and I really didn't feel like having the super come fix it. However, with this tape wrapped around it there is no longer a problem.
It takes a little bit of practice but it will form an extremely tight seal around even an irregularly shaped pipe fitting. it is important to overlap it and to stretch it while applying it so that it will cling to the pipe with some pressure. Once the tape touches itself it fuses together.

Don't waste your time or money buying this product. It is awful- doesn't do the job.

This product has more uses than one can imagine. I used it for woodworking glue-ups, firming up hockey gear....oh, I can't list all the applications. It adheres well to most everything, it stretches, it doesn't leave sticky marks like duct tape...just a great product. As the volume picks up I hope the price comes down.
