Why did I not know about this product until now? My kitchen drawers wood on wood slide out so easily now that I've had to be careful while my muscles/brain relearn! My vintage oak desk is no longer a shoulder torturer, as even the heavy lower file drawer also wood on wood now slides out with ease. I've reordered more and am "fixing" all the drawers in this old house - in built-ins and in furniture. Easy to install. Oh, and no more fine sawdust in the drawers! The two widths have been a perfect match. THANK YOU to the customer care person who just happened to mention this product!

The tape was easy to apply and it made such a difference with the kitchen drawers. I was tired of the messy wood dust that was constantly falling on the pots below. The tape really works.

I decided to use this tape under drawers rather than using drawer rollers. I found this tape to have exceptional adhesive properties on the wooden interior of the cabinet, & the drawers slide just fine, without the expense & hassle of installing rollers. This was a good choice for my application

I used the tape on an heirloom dresser and the found a great use for the 3" tape - applied it to all my pipe clamps. Now I don't need to place anything else between the clamp and the work - great stuff!

I like the easy concept of improving drawer movement with nylon tape, rather than sanding, waxing, etc. Appreciate your prompt service. Tape is a winner!

Works great for jigs thaat require sliding across a table saw or router table. Also makes old computer mouses (mice) that have lost their teflon feet/pads move much more easily.

Perfect for the half-dozen little drawers in the reproduction hutch we just bought. I was worried that the adhesive would be inadequate, but the tape seems quite secure.

I had my doubts about this when I first got it, but after applying the tape to the bottom drawer slide area it really made a difference. I'll definitely use more in the future.

I used this tape as a sliding surface for a table that pivots from one leaf open to two. It is working very well.

Great for drawers. I used the Nylo-tape on a full size dresser. Considered using metal sliders, but the tape worked great and was surprisingly smooth too.

I used this tape on some kitchen cabinet drawers that we had painted, they were all sticking and hard to open. After putting the tape on they were back to opening like they did when cabinets were new.

My 1955 kitchen drawers were dropping sawdust on the lower shelves (all over my mixing bowls, pots and pans!). Now they slide effortlessly with no sawdust!
It was so easy to apply.

Made a dresser top valet as shown in Wood Mag. Used the nylo tape on both the drawer bottoms (skids) and the inset so that the nylo tape slides against each other on. Works great. Unexpected bonus was that it raised the drawer fronts very slightly.

I have used this tape on numerous projects. It is excellent; drawers slide true and easily, even when heavily loaded down. I have never had the tape wear out, and the adhesive has never failed. Highly recommended.

I recently restored an old bedroom chest of drawers. The drawers were "old school" with wooden stops and center wooden guide rail. I think it used bees wax or soap as a lubricant. I used this Nylo-tape inside the chest and now they work better than new. I used a few extra short layers near the opening to help center the drawer face in the opening.

Nylo-Tape works perfectly exactly as described. I used it on silverware drawers - heavy and made of soft thimwood. And I used in a 100-year old file cabinets that had worn grooves on the drawer rails. Worked great, stayed slick, Protected the wood, Stopped the sticking and friction of the "inital tug."

Works like a charm on the cabinet draws. Cabinet was built in the fifties so the slides were worn, but the tape worked great.

This product is fantastic. We have a 1924 Bungalow with original cupboards. Over the 14 years we have lived here the drawers were constantly filled with sawdust from the constant wood-on-wood rubbing action. We applied the Nylo-Tape to the surface inside the cabinet and the drawers now work like a charm. I feel like I have a new kitchen!

I used the product on an old antique office desk instead of trying to rebuild the guides. The product worked great. I had to order more to fix all of the drawers, not just the one drawer.

I have an old rolltop desk that I refinished. The drawers ride on wood which made it difficult to open and close them. There was not enough clearance to add the nail-on glides so the tape was the perfect solution. I cleaned the rails and stuck on the tape. Drawers operate smoothly and the tape stays in place.

This was for a customer that had kitchen drawers about 50 years old. The wood runners on certain drawers had worn down significantly, but with the tape used on the other drawers and some repair work on the worn ones the drawers not pull effortlessly. She is very happy and astonished at the improvement.

Excellent adhesive quality; performs exactly as expected. I would never design around such a substitute, but it's a lifesaver in salvaging some lesser drawer constructs.
I stock both .010" and .020" tape so as to achieve finer adjustment when needed for drawers - it would be VERY helpful were the .020 available in 1/2 and|or 3/4 width and thus avert the need for trimming to width.

I used this on our 1950s drawers. The wooden drawers rest on wooden supports so every time we opened and closed the drawers, saw dust was created and it would fall into our dishes and bowls in the cabinet underneath. This works like a charm! No more sawdust and the drawers glide in and out easily. Thanks to someone on doityourself.com forum for suggesting it.
