We use scissors. It is a great tape. The best double sided available for the price.

You could tear it by hand, but as it is double sided and sticky, skin oils would decrease its adhering ability. I also would tear at all kinds of angles. So I use a sharp scissor to cut it to the exact shape I want.

It is not easy to tear. It has a strip of plastic over one side in order to be able to put one glue side down and then take off the plastic strip off of the other side. It is a little tricky to get the plastic strip off but it is the best way to glue two surfaces together. I use a mat knife and cut on an angle in order to make it easier to get the plastic strip off. The Scotch tape is good but there are other tapes just as good.

I cut mine with scissors. It is solid plastic but still a little flexible and not really thick. A utility knife should work, too.

Yes, very easy, a light weight pair of scissors works, no need of any heavy duty cutter.

Yes fairly easy; the youtube video is "alright" not great, but good enough. Just need a punch small hammer; fairly basic tools.

It does tear easily and small pieces might be eaten. I use it with crested geckos and the female nests in it.

yes, I cut mine, I recommend cutting it in a curve rather than a 90 degree cut if u must make a corner, this will reduce the chance of a tear

I dont think you need it. I just roll flat sheets at the desired thickness. No cuts needed you can't do with a knife.

A circular saw (or SkillSaw) would rip it to pieces! I used a razor knife that had an extendable blade. It's a very soft material that can crumble easily

It's ok. Might tear plastic if enough force. Not as thick as a ziploc bag but not as thin as dry cleaner plastic. Should be fine with "normal" force.

Its really easy, just use a hairdryer strong tooth Floss which will take a while. You can also use pliers

I usually just pry from the phillips end, then pull on the flat part of the knife end. Its easier once you get the hang of it.

Not very hard at all. Let the weight of the knife do most of the work. Have you watched the you tube video yet? It will explain all.

This tape cannot be torn by hand you either need to use a dispenser or have a knife because it is a tough tape. I ship every day as part of my job and it is a shipping tape quality. I would guess the mil thickness between 4 and 6 mils. Hope this is helpful.

I recommend using the tips of a sharp pair of scissors to snip the zip tie...from experience, it's easier and much less dangerous than using a utility knife.

For future readers, you can YouTube this and easily and quickly remove the blade with a screwdriver. I just did it. And I'm an old chick. : )
