Roger, Don't think that's it. The plumbers teflon tape has no adhesive on one side. I guess you could use some kind of spray adhesive but I don't know that it would stick to the teflon! Plus, plumbers teflon tape is only mils thick...don't think it would be appropriate for the task. Regards, Randy Pickelmann MORNING STAR

They have many pages and varieties. Tape made from almost any kind of plastic and not so plastic stuff, with and without adhesive. To put it bluntly they carry more kinds of tape than I ever dreamed of. I suppose there must be things they don't carry. My imagination may not encompass all the possibilities. BTW they have a folding ruler of about 9 feet in length that would make a great fuel tank dipstick. And some plastic material kinds of ruler tapes that you could stick up next to fuel tank sight gauges, with adhesive on the back. Mike Capt. Mike Maurice Tualatin(Portland), Oregon
