Tape 3903 is less prone to leave adhesive residue on the surface than conventional cloth duct tapes. If the adhesive side of 3903 tape accidentally falls on itself, it can be pulled apart again so the tape is not wasted.

Typically used at room temperature, but will remove cleanly when applied to a painted steel surface up to 250F for up to one hour.
