    That`s actually not a bad price, this tape isn`t cheap. I don`t know if you`ve checked with napa or not, but you may want to try them. FWIW, I think I paid around 5-6 for my roll too, but I don`t use it as much as I should.

    The 3M blue painters tape works just as well and costs less!

    Try here...http://www1.mscdirect.com/CGI/NNPDFF...P=*LTIP...they have it listed in millimeters, so the 1" would be the 24mm.

    With shipping, it may be hard to beat that price on one roll. I agree that 233+ is not that cheap in general. I find for some uses regular tan masking tape works as well for less, but 233+ rules for sticking to paint and not leaving residue. It is quite a bit stickier than regular tan stuff or the blue painters tape, so it will hold on well if a buffing pad hits it or whatever.

    I didn`t like tha tan masking tape for painting or detailing but do like the Green stuff though. I can only find it at the Auto body/paint supply store. I forget exactly how much I paid but I remember asking b4 I brought it and the price didn`t seem that bad.

    For those that live in the New England area..Ocean State Job Lot has the blue painters tape in various widths from 1.99 for the 1 inch to 2.49 for the 2 inch or the 1 1/2..I forget which size was 2.49...but was decent tape...does the job..
