Strong!
I had bought Duck tape (yes brand is “Duck”) because I thought it was comparable to duct tape. It was not. But T-Rex tape is what I needed!

Don't use or store above room temp, take separates
Thick and strong, but absolutely worthless when it's not room temp. I had to go into my attic to tape a hole in the flexible ductwork for a bathroom fan, so I took my brand new roll of T-Rex tape. I had to move around the blown in insulation and find the hole, once I did (10 minutes or so) I tried to peel off strips of tape. My attic was very hot (95 degrees outside, so...

The tape adheres so well
The tape adheres so well that it pulls the gray backing off making it completely useless.

Useless
I bought the extreme mounting tape, completely useless, I think it would’ve stuck better if I would’ve put scotch tape across it! Do not buy!

Holy holding power!!!!
I have been a loyal Gorilla Tape user for as long as I can remember, and I used
A LOT of it!!! I use tape for everything, from repairing cracked register vents, to holding toys in place for my special needs 7 year old son. Unfortunately, "G" tape was no longer strong enough, He would pull the toy off his mat, or even just take off the tape like it was nothing, I though...

Not very flexible
Good adhesive but not very conformal. Recommend it for only flat surface mending. Even simple right angle edge taping not great. Does not wrap well.

This tape is so much better than masking tape or even Gaff tape. It holds very well!

T-REX Tape Black
Needed a colored tape to patch a hole. Purchased the black T-REX tape. Met my needs and seems to stick quite well.
