Can I use clear 3M duct tape, or do I need something different? Im trying to pick up some at home depot vs ordering.
thanks

My guess is that it'll leave residue on the boat if left on too long. (not sure how long is too long though)

...oh, and it may pull some paint (if any) on your boat too!

Buy some hockey tape from a sports store. it works great and no residue

I buy the stuff here @ OSE. Don't know what it is but it's the best tape I have used to date.

Buy it here, OSE has the best stuff I have used!

And it's a show of support, for all the free advice we get at OSE!!

I like to use the hockey tape but also use electrical tape as well.

Just use electrical tape. I use electrical tape and it does not pull paint or leave anything behind. Plus it can be re used inbetween battery changes. .89 cents a roll and they come in clear, white, yellow, black, blue, red. I am not trying to steer sales away from OSE but when ya need something quick there it is.
