Customer Reviews

I've bought both the black and white (not available here) Liquid Tape. It is truly amazing stuff, and has save me a fortune in time and money. I used the white Liquid Tape to fix a MacBook cord that had been badly chewed in several places by a rabbit (long story). Replacing the MacBook adapter would have cost a fortune, but after the repair it was a good as new. Liquid Tape dries into a thick, flexible, rubbery, insulating material. I've since used the black Liquid Tape to repair microphone plugs, dousing the entire soldered joint area in Liquid Tape to create total isolation between the leads. After I screwed on the plastic end of the socket, I painted it and an inch or two of the light wire with Liquid Tape to create a flexible, strong strain-relief - as good as a molded plug. Finally, I've found it useful in tight AC spots, where I have painted over wirenuts instead of using black electrical tape - much more convenient in many applications.
I only have two complaints: 1) After shaking (and do it well), the internal brush is globbed with Liquid Tape, which can get everywhere. If you have a finer application (like my mic cords), you might want to use a separate brush. 2) It takes a little longer to dry than I'd like. For AC work, you need to let it dry thoroughly - often a few hours in my experience - prior to sealing up electrical boxes, etc.

I met this product through Amazon.com and its utility by reading the evaluations of their users. Well, it is simply an excellent product and its applications go beyond the description on the advertising of Amazon.com. I recommend it for all those electrical and non-electrical work where common tape cannot make the difference...
