gpdewitt Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Looks like it. Stuff is good for many uses, but ducts are not one of them. Adhesive will dry out and let go, usually in 6-18 months. HVAC pros will not use it, there are other tapes for ducts that do hold up.

When you cut an elbow it is used to tape the joint together, then you staple to each side of the joint because it time the duct tape will turn lose then you cover it with foil tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 One thing is for sure about duct tape. Anytime you see duct tape used in a house, chances are it is used in an improper manner.

Denray Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Works very well for places on your skin that get rubbed out, like feet in boots or hands in gloves. One layer of best quality duct tape on clean dry skin is like having an extra layer of skin with no added thickness. Works great in my hiking or ski boots and around my thumb for dirt bike riding.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Davis http://www.elitehomeinspections.net I never knew there was improper use for duct tape. Got a wart? Put some duct tape on it for a day or two. It works. I asked a dermatologist and my own Dr. why? Niether knew, but both had a story to tell about someone it worked for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Fabry Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 I never knew there was improper use for duct tape. I'm pretty sure the police frown on its use as an aphrodisiac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
