Frequently Asked Questions
Each Gorilla Tape is engineered for a specific job:
- Heavy Duty is your everyday workhorse for rough and uneven surfaces.
- All-Weather uses a permanent butyl adhesive built to survive extreme outdoor conditions.
- Ultimate delivers our strongest hold for demanding repairs and hauling.
- Crystal Clear offers a discreet bond on smooth surfaces like glass, plastic, and more!
Ultimate Gorilla Tape delivers our maximum strength hold with an extra-thick adhesive — built for the most demanding repairs, heavy hauling, and strapping applications.
All four varieties offer outdoor performance, but All-Weather Gorilla Tape is specifically designed for extreme outdoor exposure — performing reliably from 0°F to 200°F without drying, cracking, or peeling.
Store Gorilla Tape in a cool, dry place to retain adhesive quality. Keep it out of direct sunlight. Storing it vertically on a hook or on wax paper is recommended. If you have multiple rolls, keep your excess supply wrapped until needed.
No. Gorilla Tape should not be used as an electrical tape. For electrical applications, use tape that is specifically rated and listed for electrical insulation.
Start with a clean, dry surface — even a quick wipe-down makes a measurable difference in adhesion. Once applied, press the tape down firmly and rub the entire length of it, paying extra attention to the edges. The adhesive continues to build strength over the first 24 hours, so for critical repairs, give it time before putting it under load. All-Weather Gorilla Tape in particular benefits from aggressive rubbing at application, since its butyl adhesive has lower tack than the standard formula but develops an exceptionally strong permanent bond over time.
Gorilla Tape can be used on many automotive surfaces for temporary repairs — securing trim, patching tears, bundling cables — but it's not designed as a long-term automotive solution and may leave adhesive residue on paint or clear coat if left in place for an extended period or exposed to prolonged heat. Always test on a small inconspicuous area first, and for anything involving painted surfaces, remove the tape before residue has a chance to set.
