Apparently, Byggmax has a green-colored tape with reinforcement that resembles T-flex, costing about 100 SEK per roll. It will take a while before I run out of my German tape, but if someone else wants to try it and report the results here, that would be great.

I couldn't find it on their website yet, and I don't remember how it was labeled.
 
Finally got some tape from Germany. Ordered Tacoflex, and they are identical to my previous T-Flex but with a different color scheme. The order went brilliantly, and I bought 15 rolls for ~1700, and about 36 hours after ordering, the package was in Malmö. Then Schenker took over...14 days later, the shipment was announced after they sent it for pickup on Gotland even though the package was supposed to go to the capital region! Impressive! :thumbdown:
Then I was a bit puzzled when I picked up the package and got a box from Burger King with 5x2.5 kg French Fries, but when I finally opened it, it contained the ordered tape rolls!
Highly recommended!

A cardboard box with Burger King branding and rolls of D-Tack Tacoflex tape.

Perfect!
If you're lucky, you get a faint scent of frying oil as a bonus at the construction site :)

Hilarious post. :thumbup:
Wasn't it worth two weeks of waiting for that story? :rolleyes:
 
And isn't it nice that anything can happen with the packages when they cross the Swedish border.
Rarely any stops or long waiting times abroad.. but here..:mad:
 
My experiences with tape on PAPER:

Transparent construction tape: completely useless, yeah, I know you're not supposed to use that, but it was an emergency, and the real tape was out (most has been replaced with real tape).

Stokvis PS1433 (green transparent) much of the tape has come off before I managed to apply the surface materials. NOTE! The temperature during taping might have been too low, 8-10°C? And this might not be the right tape for paper.

Sitko 586, Stokvis ?? and unknown; All green with brown protective paper, they have worked very well!

If any tape lasts 50 years, who knows?!
 
Fiskarhedenvillan included Paroc's tape in the building kit. For the garage, I bought T-Flex. I think both worked well. But I felt that Paroc's tape stuck better to the plastic and to other materials (wood). Paroc was better for wrapping around corners, more flexible. Paroc felt thicker, more robust somehow.
 
Anyone who has ordered from Germany recently who can recommend a supplier? The previously linked supplier no longer sells. There are also a lot of other brands from Germany that are green/yellow with the classic protective paper on the side, while taco tape is not sold as frequently, has anyone tried the other brands?
 
I ordered from the same place last week. Works just as well as always.
 
RickeP from which seller/store?
 
Found it myself, they are probably doing updates on their site.

I like this very much, it sticks really hard. Works well in any case.

Agree! As good as the equivalent from a couple of other more well-known brands I've used. The downside is that this one is only 50mm compared to 60mm like my others have been, but that depends a bit on what you need it for. For seam sealing, it's no problem!
 
Now the order of their multi-package is done, took the opportunity to order some SDS drills and reciprocating saw blades which were also at a very good price, we'll see how the quality is on them.
Chose card payment but never got to any card payment form so we'll see how it goes, have sent the question to customer service.
 
Received the stuff yesterday, chose their package with mixed tape and glue/sealant. Also took the opportunity to buy SDS Plus drill bits, which were at a very good price compared to Sweden. The tape looks solid and good, but haven't tested it yet.
