Today's review is of the Gorilla waterproof sealing tape. I got one of those large inflatable Santa's for the yard this Christmas. During a windstorm the inflatable Santa hit the gutter and tore a 2 foot hole in the head of Santa. I had tried a few other tapes and adhesives but the combination the Midwest winter the water and cold caused the other tapes to fail and I gave up hope that Santa would be fixable.
Step in the Gorilla tape. I purchased the 4" wide band to cover the large hole, covered it with the clear 2" Gorilla Tape and fired up the fan again.
Success!!!
I have been taking down the Santa when it gets windy but in the rain and snow so far the tape has held its own. Personally I thikn this is one of the harsher applications of this product.
