SkymonkeyONE 4 #1 May 29, 2007 I got really sick of people stealing my gaffer tape rolls so I prodded around and found a great sourse online for cheap: www.tapebrothers.com They will ship you individual rolls for $12.50 apiece (2"x 50 yards) in pretty much any color you like. I got me some Flourescent Orange because that's how I roll and nobody on the DZ uses anything but black. It's the "Pro Gaff" brand. Sure beats the shit out of paying $30 a roll for black at Sunshine Factory! Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyz 1 #2 May 29, 2007 I've had a roll of neon orange for about 6 months now. Not a single inch has been stolen, and most people think that orange is ugly enough that they don't even ask to borrow any. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilotdave 0 #5 May 29, 2007 I searched around B&H's site and finally found 2"x10 yard rolls for something like $9 or $10 (black only?). Obviously more expensive per yard, but it would take me about 50 years to get through 50 or 60 yards of that stuff. The 10 yard roll is a reasonable size that I don't mind carrying around. It's the premium grade Permacell tape, which according to my vast research (ha!) is the preferred type of gaffers tape in the film industry. All I know is it sticks real good, comes off without leaving goo, and is really easy to tear straight pieces. But it is the boring black color.
