Secure it all with narrow or wide gaffers tape Most commonly, gaffers tape comes in widths of two and three inches. There may be times, however, when you'll need to tape down several bundles of wires, or maybe thicker cables. In those cases, you'll find wider gaffers tape works best.

Brighten your world with gaffers tape in a variety of colors For most theatrical purposes, black, non-reflective gaffers tape is best to conceal the wiring as much as possible. However, in some instances you might want colored tape, such as when you want to warn people of a potential tripping hazard posed by taped down wires. Some retailers allow you to pick from a wide variety of colored gaffers tape.

If you use a large amount of the same type of gaffers tape, such as black, on a regular basis, buying in bulk is for you.
