I need to make 50 treats for Halloween this year and have no intention of cutting 100 pieces of tape from a roll and then taking the backing off of them all so I can stick 2 tags together :shock: Is there a super sticky tape that comes on a roll like regular tape that just tears off? I have done a search for 3M double sided tape on a roll and those seem to be the wrong words because the regular red stuff that I use - the red uline that is the same as SU's - is what is coming up. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

The only non-lined double-stick tape I'm aware of is scotch in the yellow packaging, but I wouldn't really call it super sticky.
The thing with super sticky is that it's, well, super sticky and you need the liner because it will otherwise just stick to itself. Scor-tape (sookwang) tears, but you'll still have to peel off a backing.
haha, now that you mention the tape sticking to itself, that makes perfect sense and I guess I just hadn't thought of it like that! I have managed to find Crafters Companion Extra Strong Permanent Tape Runner that claims to be strong enough to make boxes with so I might try that one. It just pains me to think of tearing off so many little pieces for what I am making but I really like the treat things I have in mind Might need to re-think this one. Thanks for responding!

How about the fast fuse? It is super sticky but in a dispenser like a tape runner so no cutting necessary. I will be honest it took me a while to work out how to use it - when you want to finish putting glue down you have to push down slightly and do a sideways flick otherwise it pulls out a load of the tape and then takes an age the next time you go to use it... Worth practicing on scrap paper first. I have made lots of boxes and it holds up well, just remember like all adhesives you have to have clean, dry surfaces and the more you rub the finished joint the stronger it will be.
I started using To bow Xtreme tape runner. I get the idea it's a lot like the SU fast fuse. I find it at Michael's with a coupon. It is refillable too.

Thanks for the suggestions! I hadn't seen the SU or the Tombow so it's good to know I have some options!! I think I am going to grab the Tombow this week and make a few testers to see how it holds up. Wish me luck!!

Wow, those prices are incredibly low! I see it is wide, though. Do you cut it into strips? Awesome prices on foam mounting tape, too! Thanks for sharing the link!
So, when you say other well known products, do you mean other double sided tape rollers or other peel off the red plastic double stick tape rolls? :lol:
I saw something about a 3" core dispenser so I am going to see what that is all about too!! Thanks for that link!
