Product Information
Full details
The Sellotape Original Golden Tape is an essential tool for office workers, students, and home organizers seeking a reliable, multi-purpose adhesive. Known for its extra strength and stickiness, it excels at securing paper, envelopes, and craft projects with a clear finish that remains invisible on most surfaces. While it is highly durable, users should note that the adhesive is permanent and may not be suitable for delicate surfaces where repositioning is required.

FAQs
Is this tape archival safe?
This tape is designed for general-purpose use. It is not specifically rated for archival or museum-grade document preservation.
Can I use this for heavy-duty packaging?
It provides extra strength suitable for office envelopes and light household packages, though it is not a substitute for heavy-duty industrial carton-sealing tape.
How many rolls come in a pack?
This specific pack contains 24 rolls in a convenient display unit.
Does the golden color show up on paper?
No, the tape appears clear once it has been applied to a surface.
Will this tape damage photos?
Because the adhesive is permanent, it is not recommended for use on photographs or delicate surfaces where you may want to remove the tape later.
What are the dimensions of each roll?
Each individual roll is 24mm wide and 50 meters long.
Troubleshooting
Tape is difficult to find the end of
Locate the designated starter tab provided on the roll or gently scrape the surface with your fingernail until the edge lifts.
Tape tangles or bunches during application
Ensure you are using a consistent, smooth pull motion and check that the roll is properly aligned within your dispenser.
Adhesive residue on the dispenser
Use a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to gently wipe the cutting edge of the dispenser.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your tape, keep it stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as excessive heat can degrade the adhesive over time. The rolls are designed to be compatible with most standard desktop tape dispensers, which will further improve the ease of cutting and application. If you are not using a dispenser, utilize the provided starter tab to lift the edge cleanly. To maintain the 'easy-tear' functionality, ensure that the serrated edge of your dispenser remains clean and free of adhesive residue, which can be wiped away using a cloth dampened with a small amount of rubbing alcohol.
