works well
Works well, applies easily with a bit of water with a touch of soap in it, would be nice it it was a little thicker - my roll measured .0015inch (.04mm) thick I would prefer - .005 inch but I had trouble finding that, this is good enough and most likely less expensive than thicker material.

Not a 100ft roll
As others have noted the spools didn't seem to be an100ft as advertised. However they were at the bend of the roll and giving an approximation. I took their comments with a grain of salt and ordered anyway. Quality wise it's good for my needs but that's where anything good stops.At the same time I also ordered from someone else a roll of 6 inch wide kapton with the exact same specifications as the 9 inch roll.In a side by side comparison you can visibly see that the 6 inch roll is quite a bit fuller than the 9 inch roll, the roll cores measure the exact same width and thickness.So it is patently obvious that the 9 inch roll has significantly less tape on it in length than the 6 inch does. I seriously doubt that the 9 inch roll has a full 100ft and I seriously doubt that the 6 inch roll has far more than 100ft, as pricey as kapton tape is, nobody and I mean nobody is going to give you more on a roll than what is advertised but I can definitely see them advertising a certain length and putting less on it for the inflated cost.Sorry but this one just cost a customer return. I don't deal with dishonesty.

Not 100 feet
I need 60-65 feet for my project. After using that much I'm basically at the end of the role. There was maybe 70 ft on this role. Not what I expected.

This tape is easy to install
I have a nine year old 3d printing business where I have learned to use Kapton tape. This tape is easy to install, and I love the area it covers for the price. In this business, I have discovered that there is an adherence quality between the Kapton tape and PLA/ABS plastic. This tapes brand has an issue with this adherence quality. The tape drastically loses this adherence to parts after about three prints. Other tapes last much longer. This is pretty expensive if you have to change every three prints.

Sort of works but hard to apply
This is better than the painter's tape I was using before, but the prints still came off occasionally. The real problem I have with this is that it is incredibly difficult to apply. Unrolling a 9 inch wide piece of tape without it wrinkling, or splitting, or sticking to itself is a feat of dexterity. Applying the tape without bubbles is another one. I advise multiple thinner pieces of tape, instead of covering the whole print bed at once, or one of those precut sheets.

Woefully thin and delicate
I can't get a single print off of this 1mil Kapton without damaging it. They say "2 mil total thickness" including the adhesive... that's some deceptive advertising. The previous 2.75mil that was on my bed before lasted about a year before needing replacement. I didn't pay attention to the thickness difference when I purchased this and will never get this thin stuff again. I don't know what this is good for but it's not suitable for a 3D printer bed unless you enjoy replacing it every couple of prints after rearranging the models to the good spots with each print.
