Thanks for all the replies.  Most confirmed Bed-It was good quality stuff which 
is what I was using.  I couldn't find Bed-It anywhere except the old site which 
is now closed cause the owner had a stroke last September. 

Ordered butyl tape from SailRite for $12.  They usually have quality stuff so 
I'll see when it comes next week and let you know.

I tried the Lifesafe beside the Bed-It and there's really no comparison.

It is a bit silly to get it from a store north of the border (that tape would 
be well traveled), but at least it is there.


The original source is no longer there (he had a bad stroke).


Hope this works

Anyone know where to order Bed-It butyl tape?  Everything I tried was deadend.

I used the Bed-it (from Maine Sail) and have some experience with the 
off-the-shelf, RV-store variety. The PO of my previous boat (C 24) used the 
store variety and it did not stick to anything (maybe your fingers) and had to 
be replaced. The Bed-It, is stickier and stays sticky and flexible even after 5 
years.

Of course, these are very anecdotal test results on an extremely limited 
sample, so YMWV.

And who would that be?  It is my understanding that Maine Sail had Bed-It tape 
specially formulated.  To my knowledge, he was the only source.

Lots of discussions on lots of forums.  All say one of two things 1) Bed It is 
really, absolutely better or 2) just buy any old crap from your local RV store, 
it's all the same.  Nobody, repeat, nobody offered any definitive proof that 
any other butyl tape was equivalent to, equal to or better than Bed-It.  Many 
posters swore Bed-It was indeed better.

I have used bed-it butyl tape for many bedding applications such as winches, 
ports, etc. with success, although I often wished it was available in thicker 
and wider dimensions. 
OTOH, butyl tape (not bed-it) is available at most RV stores and I have used 
this version with equal success.
The RV variety is both thicker and wider than bed-it but not as ‘sticky/tacky’ 
which can be a plus.(Bed-it stickiness can be a PITA getting it off its paper 
protective layer and your fingers).
YMMV,

Everything I know about butyl tape comes from this site: 
https://marinehowto.com/bed-it-tape/

But I see a note there that the store is currently closed.
