The ones with the green look like factory parts, with the protective coating, and the silver ones look field fabricated, or from a boneyard.

Yup, oddly enough it does *look* like duct tape. Back in the fifties, what we now call duct tape was called "Missile Tape" by crews mating warheads to rocket motors. The last thing done was tape around the mating and all access doors. We all wondered how it could stand the acelleration, speed, and distance, but none was ever found on the ground after the launch so it was tough stuff. I don't have to tell you that many a roll was "liberated" for other purposes and I think that's how it migrated to becoming duct tape. |
