(More customer reviews)As the advertisements suggest, this tape will stick to brick and virtually any other surface. Be careful though, because it might just strip the paint upon removal. This was the painful lesson I learned when trying to temporarily hold some video cables to my wall and ceiling. Even when using a hair dryer to soften the adhesive, I was not able to prevent the paint from getting ripped off, no mater how gentle I was.
Despite my lack of success with the hair dryer, the only area where I have seen Gorilla Tape fail is in moderately-high temperature applications. For example, I wanted to use the tape to patch small leaks around the exhaust hose of a new portable air conditioner. The warm air would simply soften the adhesive over time, causing it to fall off.
It would be nice if a version of Gorilla Tape had nylon filaments, similar to strapping tape. While strong, Gorilla Tape does not have the tensile strength provided by such reinforcing fibers. This feature would then allow Gorilla Tape to be employed in a number of other applications where it could serve as a structural element instead of merely a bonding medium. Pros
Excellent adhesive qualities
Cross woven fibers
Cons
Doesn't hold up in moderately high temperatures
No nylon filament reinforcement
Stickiness can make some applications difficult

Gorilla tough... now on a roll The toughest glue on the planet is now a Tape! Bonds to things ordinary tapes can't: brick, stucco, wood and more. Double-thick adhesive, strong reinforcing backing and a tough all-weather shell combine for a tape so strong it'll leave you beating your chest with satisfaction. Hey, why settle for a "duck" when you have a gorilla? Measures 1 7/8" x 35 yds., weighs 1 1/2 lbs. Gorilla Tape
