The stuff has been in common use in marine circles for at least a
decade, but in Standish Napa had never heard of it, nor had Advanced
or VIP.  I bought that roll at a Pilot? truck stop in CT?  West
Marine undoubtedly carries it in several colors, but the Rescue Tape
is somewhat wider than I remember the marine stuff being.

Keep it clean and stretch it minimum 50%, 100% better.  $10 for a decent roll.
