RE: Artists' tape



DEAR JUDY,
	Actually there is a significant difference between Gaffers tape and
Camera tape.  Gaffer's tape will, if left long enough, leave a residue.
Camera tape won't.  Also, gaffer's tape has a much stronger adhesive which
can, if you are not careful, (as those of us who have worked with it in film
making know) take wall paper and paint off a wall. 
		CHEERS!

That sounds like what we used to call gaffer's tape.  It did as you say 
but expensive.
