I have a duct tape wallet. The chicks dig it. Until they find out it’s empty.

At my daughter’s wedding, the Best Man rented a tux and the pants legs were too long, so we hemmed them with duct tape.

I could say the same thing about at least one ex-wife.

Ummm... Which part? The residue, the delay, or the worsening?

Or is it a three-fer?

I just had a sick vision of taping someone’s head like a turban, that would hurt on removal.

I used it to fix rain coats temporarily. That’s about all it’s good for.

The sticky residue cleans off quickly and easily with a spray of WD40. The solvent nature of that product softens and dissolves glues, like the labels attached to glass jars which you want to reuse.

I used it to get a deflated truck tire back on a rim at 2AM. Pushed tire in to seal along inner rim, used duct tape to temporarily close the gap between tire and outer rim. Add air from *big* commercial compressor (able to deliver a lot of air fast) and viola...

Hey! Great idea!.....I admit I’m a duck tape user. Works great positioning pictures you’re hanging. Also putting together a temporary kitty shelter.....and the list goes on.

Thanks for hint!

Gorilla tape is pricey, but it is what duct tape wanted to be when it grew up!

I prefer ‘De-solv-it’ for household use, although I am not a fan of WD-40, I do use it for cleaning things around the truck when I am out and about, including my hands sometimes.
