Handyman's friend - better than Duct Tape

Got a problem? This might be the fix, move over duct tape, there is a new kid in town.

EternaBond

I just found this product which I am very excited about. It is a double sided tape which will stick anything to anything but it's made for rubber membrane roofs.

I'm sure there is almost unlimited uses for it, I'm using it on my hovercraft.

EternaBond uses, from the packaging: EPDM, TPO, Hypalon, Most PVC's, Modified, All Metals, Tile, Stone, Brick, Concrete and Wood.

The display I found this on was a rubber roof sheet material which was bonded to aluminum flashing/gutter. I tried to peel off the rubber from the metal, got just a small corner of it up, could go no further - big gooey mess of mastic like out of a Sci-Fi horror movie, it just would not let go.

It's not cheap, a 2" x 50ft roll will set you back $40-$50, and not found at the big box stores, only at professional roof supplier outlets.

So what's your handyman's friend? Do you have something, a tool perhaps, which you use on your house, your car, your boat, your aircraft, and your stereo which you want to share?
