Actually you're correct. People call it duct tape in error. Ever use
any on a duct? . . . Within the year it's dried out and coming loose.
You'd think it was distributed by Moss motors. Anyway, it's NOT DUCT
tape, it's DUCK tape, and that's a mfg. trademark ie. DUCK BRAND TAPE, a
"generic term duck type tape" worthy of Spridget custom branding. It's a
tape you'd be PROUD to have holding your fender/wing/etc. on with.
My opinion, all disclaimers apply.`
