This auction is for a 50 meter reel of 1/4" or 6mm tape
This is a trade secret they would rather you didn't know,
a rubber based double sided tape which is far superior to normal double sided tapes
sailmakers and canvas fabricators use reel after reel of very high quality double sided sticky tape for holding seams together before sewing
or to use as a seal to stop water leaking through seams when sewing areas that will be above your head like a bow pocket on a canvas cover.
Sails are stuck together with this tape, called basting in the trade. They are then sewn with little chance of the seams being out of alignment.
You can also use this tape to stick together model boat sails so little or no sewing is required.
