There are two types of tape being sold that look like duct tape,  Duct
tape and cloth tape.  They're both the same color and look exactly the
same except cloth tape is much weaker and not as sticky.  Cloth tape
breaks down alot faster when exposed to the underhood elements and
weather compared to duct tape.
