The different "colors" of tape are actually different types of tape, pick wisely.
The "off-white" (ripstop nylon) tape is 20" x 3", it's thin but it is opaque. This fabric tape is flexible, very sticky, and strong. I used this tape to repair a small hole that our cat made on the wall of our new tent, the first time we set it up to inspect it. It did the job well, and doesn't look too bad either.
One thing that puzzles me about this product, is that no where on the packaging does it actually say "ripstop nylon". It is discreetly labeled as "Nylon" on the front of the package, but 'nylon' and 'ripstop nylon' are not the same thing. The product description here on Amazon is just as vague. There are 3 different types of tape being sold as "7 different colors", and it is not made clear what type of tape each "color" actually is.
Nylon Tape (black, red, orange, yellow)
Ripstop Nylon Tape (green and off-white)
Plastic/Vinyl Tape (clear)
