What type of tape is used for wrapping poles? I have a pole I may want to strip and wrap.
I believe there was a thread on this a while back but I can't find it.

Hey man, I found this. It is for packaging so I would imagine it is not very heavy. I was looking for colored tape, and see what there is. They have white.

If anybody finds any tape that is gold and sparkly let me know. I think it would be really cool to have a pole with some gold sparkly tape

Gold Tape, Hmmm?
Check out Trophy shops, they use that all the time
and companies who cut automotive decals use the same stuff made by 3M.

Here's some sweet checkerboard and warning stripe tape. I wonder how thick it is?

I like that glow in the dark tape on that site....it would be difficult to pole vault while it is glowing though, but it would be cool.

Yeah I wish they had a picture of what it looked like instead of a drawing.
