What is Double Sided Tape?
Double sided tape can be a very useful type of tape. In most types of tape, the adhesive or “sticky part” is applied to one side of the tape only. This means people wrapping gifts, for instance, will have to show the tape on the outside of the gift, which some people feel isn’t pretty enough. In contrast, double sided tape has adhesive on both sides of the tape, which can allow people to attach two things together without the tape showing. For regular types of tape for home use, it’s important to decide whether doubled sided tape is required. Sometimes the second side adhesive can be more disadvantage than advantage. If the other side of the tape is exposed, it can stick to other things. Single-sided tape may be more appropriate for some projects.
