Harry,

I've found that, for most applications, painter's tape works well. While not the strength of gaffer's tape (it "rates" about the same as masking tape), a few extra layers, when needed, usually works. The advantage is that it's more readily available and costs less. It doesn't seem to leave any residue, even after having been in place for weeks. I don't know if it's water-proof, but it doesn't disintegrate when wet either. Just an alternative to consider.


    Regards,

It's something I use in photography but it's finding a place in my radio bag.
It holds about the same as duct tape but is easier to rip into strips and 
leaves less if any residue.
