down not up.

Good question. I don't know if Gorilla Tape is any good.

When I have something where I need tape that really, really sticks good and
will last a long time, I use the aluminum duct tape that the A/C guys use to
tape up ducts. Since the tape goes on the outside of the duct and the air
pressure is outward, it has gotta stick good. And it does. I bought a
large roll of it for about $12 about ten years ago and I still have a lot
left.

Even the cheap Al tape at WalMart is sticky like that. Just not UL approved
for HVAC use.

Once I used it to tape the plastic arm handle on a miter saw together until
the new one arrived. Held up good. Maybe I could have made it permanent
since...

For what purpose?

I've never bought any but I'd have no reason to think it any better than
any other decent-quality tape of the same general price and purpose.
Certainly the Gorilla-brand poly glue is no different despite the name
and advertising than any of the others.
