Hi Just..., I bought from Amazon and I would not call it a fine grit. The tape itself is not as thin as scotch tape. Trying to figure out what to compare it with!

This is exactly what I bought:

It works wonderfully and idoqlts, I pulled some off that had been on my ruler for 2 weeks. just had to stick a fingernail under a corner and pull. Very easy and I thought that it may even be usable as a temporary aide several times. I hope you find success with it.

I would advise any user of a similar item to place it vertically down the cutting side of your ruler!!

Kitsie, it sounds like you bought exactly what we bought at the quilt show. The bottom of the tape is thick, not like scotch tape. It looks like what we bought in the picture you posted, too. But I didn't know there was also tape available in a fine grit until my friend bought it by mistake, and wanted everyone to be aware.

I bought some off Amazon also. It works well. It is better than medical tape. I like clearer (less lines) rulers for some of my projects and so the tape is perfect for those rulers. The original posting advised that you should use an older scissors to cut. I used my utility scissors from Harbor Freight (89 cents). I am in the process of putting the tape on all my templates. The roll I bought (2" x 5') is ample and I will be sharing with my friends.

I have one of those suction cup "phone handles" and it is awkward at best to use.. This looks like it will be much better!
