Default Insulation facing repair tape

Owens Corning web site says to use duct tape to repair torn insulation
facing. FWIW, after discussion here on NG, I wrote to them and received this
reply:

"Thank you for your interest in Owens Corning. We recommend a waterproof

builder tape. We manufacture the following product available at your
local building supply.

BILD-R-TAPE (Construction Tape) is a multi-purpose construction tape

ease of handling which are the characteristics of a high quality
construction tape. Bild-R-Tape exhibits superior bonding to a range
