Have you just bought plain old friction tape from the hardware store?

How wide was the tape .Thanks for the response. I bought the tape of off the internet . It is cloth but it is real thin and not very stickey

The modern hardware store stuff doesn't stick like the older stuff did.

I have had good luck with "hockey" tape.

It says 3/4" on the can, Dan!

I'd be surprised if my Manson still sticks; Just a vanity shelf item.

Found decent generic friction tape at a big-box store a few years ago, but I'm about out...

Cotton, I too have a container like yours of Manson tape.

Now days all I use is Coroplast abrasion and heat resistant tape. It's OEM on many harnesses. Tough stuff, you won't tear it like other tapes, it must be cut.

I bought a roll at Home Depot. I believe it is made by 3M. Works great.

Shop Dope Nov.16,1937 # 9 . Tape and shellac entire length of gas and oil pipes. This is what I do for wiring using the old tape that won’t stick, also can soak cloth strips in shellac to make your own covering , period correct? not my call.
