Went to amazon and find that it comes in paper, surgical, and cloth. Which kind are you all using so I will know what to order?
"micropore" is a specific type of tape. It does not come in any other type, other than 'Micropore +" (which is a little stickier).

3m plastic tape is Transpore.

3m Cloth tape is Medipore.

They are all 'surgical', according to 3m.... as are many other of their medical tapes.
So I went back to double check and here's what I found:

3M Medipore Soft Cloth Surgical Tape - 3" wide per roll
3M Micropore Paper Tape - White, 1
3M Durapore Silk-Like Cloth Surgical Tape 2" x 10 yds.

So what I am asking is: who is using paper, soft cloth, or silk like as to what you have found to be effective and most comfortable? Thank you.
Since pretty much everyone has recommended "Micropore"...
