Really? The stuff I used to buy said 'duct'.

Is there a "Duck" brand of duct tape?

I'm confused.

ya my dad calls it gaffers tape due to his being a videographer and having to use.... gaffers tape. technically by calling it duck tape would be like the heated discussion of NOS klenex and q-tip..... i know a guy who fly's heli's and he calls it 100 MPH tape...... call it what you will it's good shit

gaffer's tape is a little different. its not as water resistant but its more pliable

I use chopsticks with 2 pieces of tape that makes a "T" shape at the top of the stick. I eat a lot of thai food, so I have tons of the cheap wooden chopsticks they give you with take-out orders. For drying, I stick the bottom of the stick in a hole in the side of a cardboard box. The stick and the car are then inside the box, which helps keep dust from landing on it while the paint is wet.
