What is your go-to electrical tape for bundling wiring harnesses? Have you guys used Tesa tape? It seems pretty durable so far and it’s not all gooey like traditional electronically tape

I use Tesa tape. It's awesome. B) ScannerDanner has it on his Amazon page.

After having engine harnesses fall apart even with 3M super 33 tape, I'm a tesa fan.

It's not worth the price for some jobs, so I tend to use a lot of hockey tape. It works great for taping the edges of interior panels to stop rattles as well. Stack it several layers thick where needed.
