Anyone know a S.A. supplier that can provide fluorescent paper flagging tape. Its 85mm wide.. not sure of the length of the roll though.

 

Sticky on one side and printed in fluorescent colour on the other side. 

 

Have gone through Google and looked at various SA tape suppliers but cant seem to find this particular tape

Normal chevron/barrier tape ? No can do 

 

Must be in 2 different dayglo colours so I can mark 2 separate routes. And adhesive so i can wrap it around and stick it to itself. Paper based so i can tear off strips as I go mark.

Why have it adhesive if you can just use a good quality double sided adhesive tape just where you join it?

 

Cause it doubles the materials i need to carry and doubles the time to mark. A few seconds to do it .. but add those seconds up and they soon become an extra couple of hours

I suspect ease of use plays a massive roll.

Was that a pun?

 

That stuff does exist locally. Contact some of the race organizers. I've seen it used frequently in the western cape

Because it will take you forever and come off and a total pain in the arse

Just get the tape

Hardware stores and art or stationary shops should be able to supply

Must it be paper?

 

Just use lumo duct tape.   We often use lumo yellow and pink (like above) to mark out our fashion show backstage areas.  Widely available.

Paper so i can tear strips off as needed. No plastic/plastic based.. its not enviro friendly and doubt the type you referring to come in rolls of practical length.
