I’ve been down a rabbit hole tonight of paper gum tape application videos and from my one day of watching videos 😂 it seems like most of the companies who actually use this tape have this $300ish dispenser that spits out the length you tell it too and it automatically applies the water. Plus according to several videos the water temperature is supposed to be set to 110 degrees. Not that I would have any personal experience to be giving advice haha! So room temp water might be why the adhesive isn’t sticking as well. Because at the same time almost every video I watched said paper gum tape had better adhesion and some companies used it as a loss prevention took because it was easy enough to stick a hand through if you push down on one flap of regular a regular cardboard box.
I dislike my tape!!! You do have to use clear tape first then use this as a logo presentation not as a alone tape to secure your package. I am looking for a tape like ebay has with logo. I wouldn’t purchase again but great video
