Review: Miracle patch for scripture page!!! - I was so heartsick when I tore a page! I really did not know what to do. I thought of regular tape, then I remembered seeing old tape yellow, harden, and fall off; leaving the original tear still a problem. Then I found this archival tape online. I am so glad I did!!! Pros: * First, the tape did it's job. The tear is repaired well. * The tape is thin like a scripture page. The weights match. * The end result is perfect! I can't see the tear unless I look for it. I can't even see the tape on the page! Cons: * It is difficult to tear the backing off because the tape is thin. * The tape rolls up sticking to itself as you tear the backing off. We had to have someone hold the tear shut while someone else put the end of the tape down while pulling on the tape in order to cover the entire tear. A two-person job. But, it really worked well! * There are yellow dots of glue, as other reviews have mentioned, I think to hold the circle of tape to itself in shipping. I really didn't care because I just needed a few inches of clean tape. I would purchase this again!!!
Review: Worked great on a Bible page tear. See HINT for removing backing. - I repaired a 1-inch tear in a Bible. It worked perfectly. It is not 100% transparent, but if you are taping something that is close to white, it might not matter. The typed print through the tape is a little muted, but definitely still easy to read. I put tape on both sides of the torn page. For me, two keys: 1. I wanted something that was STRONG. 2. I wanted something that would not YELLOW. HINT: Many are having trouble getting the backing off of the sticky side. I used an idea someone wrote in a comment. I used a sharp push-pin (could also use a sewing needle, or something similar), and used it to carefully pry a corner of the backing off of the sticky side of the (very thin) tape. Takes a little patience, but I did 4 pieces using this method, and it took less than a minute for each one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have some fragile documents from the 1800s.  Is this tape safe to use on such an old document or is another product better?**
A: Functionally, this repair tape will work to repair the tear with minimal observable signs when properly applied.  However, the decision whether or not to use it should be based more on the comparative value of the documents.  If very valuable, it is probably worth considering consulting a document restoration expert.

**Q: Would this be good for taping together a torn photograph from the back while still being able to read the text written underneath it?**
A: I am not sure about using it for the photograph. Since it is transparent I would think it would be doable but I have not used it myself for a photograph. I don't think I would put the tape on the front of the photo incase it shows.  You might do a test run on a photo or two that you don't want to keep and see how it works before trying it on important photos.

**Q: Will this tape work on thin fabric? Would it then be washable?**
A: This is a thin, transparent tape that can mend tears in  book page such that the paper will still be completely flexible and the text can be read through it. I cannot see it holding up to fabric uses, particularly not washing.

**Q: Does this have an adhesive?**
A: Yes it does.  It's a bit tricky.  The tape appears to be solid and opaque.  But if you peel away what the box calls 'the release paper' you will feel the adhesive on one side of the transparent tape.  I found using the box to do this didn't work well.  I used my finger nails to peel it apart which takes a few times to get the hang of it. 
Once peeled it  does well at repairing in a way that doesn't show.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by B***A on July 5, 2025*

At first I had trouble separating the tape from the backing and I almost gave up. Then I read some of the other comments and figured out what to do. I creased the taped back and forth a couple of times until I could see the transparent tape separate from the backing, then I pulled them apart. Worked like a charm. That said, the tape is nice. It holds the torn page together and I could reposition it when I had to without damaging the page.i like it.
