WHAT! At first I thought he said he used it ON his wife! I know its some good tape, but to stop a nagging wife its gotta be magic! 1 roll of DMT 3.85, some peace and quite priceless.... F.Y.I: I don't recommend taping up your wife or girlfriend,unless she's into that type of stuff...:o

The U Haul tape. Affectionately know as “Dave’s Magic Tape”. It still is a frequent question from my youtube channel. I may have to do another video about it.
If you new to the discussion forums we are talking about the brown tape, you see me use in all my fireworks projects. I just think it is the best and so do Zambelli Fireworks, Pyrotecnico and most likely many other companies. These companies order it from a paper supply company. For years, this was always a nice little bonus of working a professional display for these companies you might get lucky and have some left over tape. Then one day, one the guys on my crew that worked for U Haul told me he thought it was the same tape that U Haul sold at its stores. Sure enough it is.
Now that everyone is talking about it, I am going to order more of it myself. The way I order it is from the website. If you get over $25.00 worth it ships for free. We will make an exception to the advertising rule on this one.


Order here 55 yard roll

81 Five start reviews on the U haul website when evaluating the tape.

This is the best tape! I have used it for many years for shipping my boxes, packing, or storing boxes. I like that I can write on it, unlike the plastic tapes, and it is so strong and durable.

I could have used more tape - it would have been helpful if the order form more specifically indicated it was only one roll of tape as I assumed it was for a package of 6 like I have purchased in the past. Great tape, by the way.

Qualities i find are far better than most... Rips easier which is a huge plus when in field and using it... Extremely tacky even in cold weather... Fire passes through it, just cant find anything better at this point.... Why I have a box full of it...lol

Maybe we should keep it to ourselves---we don't want them raising the price!!!!Dave, too bad you can't get a commission [or a free case of tape] for all the business you have sent to them!!

Hi Guys!

Because i live in Europe, i can't find (and get) the famous "Magic Tape" locally.
I found only one "thing" that look alike Dave's Magic Tape:
http://www.tesa.com/consumer/tapes/Packaging_tapes/tesapack_paper_ecologo,c.html
Looks very similar....
Somebody from Europe have tried this tape?
(Sorry my english is poor!)

This is the reason I'm on this forum... Because Dave has gone out of his way from the start to improve the hobby, and to project a safe and positive light on it... His willingness and ability to uphold the commitment throughout the years is helping everyone from hobbyist to business owner to grow. THANKS DAVE! I appreciate the service you provide, (sorry I know it's just tape) but its this same willingness to help others that you've provided from the start!
