Default RatsnFratsn@#*$& Harbor Freight double stick tape

I just tried some of the harbor freight double stick tape that I got for
$9.99 for 6 rolls. This is not the same as the cheap double stick tape from
Lowe's. It is just a layer of thick adhesive between the layers of paper.
I put it on a mandolin top to stick it to the table to carve out the inside.
After about 5 minutes of trying to peel off the top layer, I figured out
what was going on. The tape didn't stick the wood to the table, but the
tape stuck to the wood like a SOB. Wouldn't peel off, wouldn't scrape off.
Mineral spirits turned it to snot (well most of it, there is still a layer
of residue on top of the mandolin soundboard. What a mess.

Definite thumbs down.
