Gaffer tapes

[munfai]

Hi...

I'm looking to purchase some gaffer tape... but don't know which to buy.

I understand that there are different kinds - cloth, vinyl, etc etc

Could somebody recommend which to get, or better still give me a specific brand?

Thanks

Gaffer tapes can be found locally. Just try one of those motion picture equipment rental companies. For example, The Film Equipment Gallery @ 114 Sophia Road. Tel: 63380341. Munfai, maybe u can try calling them regarding your queries too?

to protect equipment, to prevent equipment identification, to make equipment look old and trashed so that nobody would want to steal it, etc, etc...
