33 Life Hacks to Solve Your Everyday Problems

Say Goodbye to Terrible Tape

Where would we be without the lifesaver known as tape? Let’s face it – some of us would attempt to fix anything with tape if possible! We use it to hang our children’s cute creations on the fridge. We tape reminders around our desks and homes in some cases. We use electrical tape to help us with our wiring woes. Some use therapeutic tape to help with disabilities or injuries. Some use grip tape for their tennis rackets or drumsticks. Double sided tape gives us front and back sticky stability. Masking tape assists us with our painting projects. The convenience of tape is obviously inarguable.

The only major issue that we tend to have with tape is that it sticks to itself. Peeling the starting piece of tape off the roll can become increasingly difficult as the grade of tape strengthens. In this case, preparing the tape for use can take longer than the actual project. Scratching too deeply can ruin the tape. To fix this problem, simply stick a paper clip at the end! Peeling your tape will become an issue of the past.
