The post office somehow sells the best clear tape in my country

I used to have some 3M shit from the 80s. It was duct tape but on steroids. A visibly thick layer of adhesive, roughly cut fabric base with some of that military green vinyl coating. Everyone called it EB green because it was mostly from Electric Boat in Connecticut. After like 5 years that thing was just a semi round blob of carpet, sheetrock paper and basically anything else it touched in it's life. Skin would lose to this shit quite often. It became one with itself and everything it came in contact with.
