Check out the 3M brand at West Marine, about $1.75 a foot.  I have tried
several brands over the years I find the 3M the most durable.  The first 3M
tape I purchased was about nine years ago and is still on my Sea Star.  I
have purchased some tape for another boat about two years ago and the top
clear film is delaminating.  I wonder if they changed their construction
method? I find the older tape held together much better than the newer
purchase.  Even with the newer 3M reflective tape is better than the other
brands of tape I purchased in the past.  Note; I only used the tape on my
boat not my paddle.  I would like to know if there is better brand out
there?
