That $200 door edge protection tape I cheaped out on
I replaced a set of elevator doors last month and thought I'd save a few bucks by using regular packing tape instead of the edge protection stuff. The packing tape left a sticky residue on the stainless steel that took me like 4 hours with goo gone to clean off. Anyone got a brand of edge tape that actually stays put without leaving a mess?

You've never learned the hard way that cheap tape costs extra hours?

Idk man, I tried the cheap stuff once and it fell apart halfway through the job. Now I just spend a few bucks more on the good brand and never look back.

Yeah, my buddy thought he was saving money and spent all night redoing trim.
