That being said I’ve used the J&J tape for at least 10+ years and it’s been the best I’ve personally tried by far.

If you do try it, leave a comment and let us know how it compares to the Metolius tape.

I typically will use 2 inch tape for cracks, but it really depends. You could always just use more wraps for better coverage with the narrower width tape.

BJ – then you should keep buying cases of it and start your own online retailer for tape!
