Another "Tape Mache" Experiment - Wet and Stick Tape

This experiment with "Tape Mache" wasn't quite as much fun as the first one. But it was a lot of fun seeing all the suggestions that were posted by viewers here on YouTube, and on my website.

Maybe I'd be more exited about this tape as an option for fast, temporary masks if I hadn't tried the medical-type Nexcare tape first. That tape is soft and flexible, tears easily, goes on fast ans sticks really well. The wet and stick tape is stiff, which makes it usable for masks without any cardboard underneath. It might be a good choice for kids. But for the rest of us, the old-fashioned newspaper strips with flour and water paste is actually easier to use.

But maybe I missed something - if you think this might work in more situations than I could think of, please let us know in the comments below.

Link to the gummed paper tape I used for this experiment: https://amzn.to/3YDHork - it's possible that a different brand would stick better or work better in other ways. This tape is normally used to stretch watercolor paper or seal the back of framed art.
