Please note that WASHI TAPE is not a replacement for ADHESIVE TAPE or SCOTCH TAPE or DUCT TAPE. Washi Tape has a lighty tacky back which makes it removeable. Please note that this is purely a decorative tape and may not adhere to most surfaces. Common faults in washi tape is that it is prone to peeling and may not stick flat to most material, especially those that have any type of coating material or a sheen to it.
