Reassuringly expensive
A vast improvement on the hook and loop/Velcro type method. It requires less tape and holds fast pedals and power supplies more reliably.
Pedal board tape doesn't need two types of tape (as does hook and loop) instead it has mushroom shape nodes which interlock with each other gripping far more.
If you have to remove it you will need either a flat blade or, better still, a hot air gun or maybe a hair drier would do the trick. I have found that it can be re-used if you don't let it dry out.

Fixing pedals as a pro
I must say I am very happy with the Thomann Pedal Board Tape. I had some issues with heavy devices on my board with the traditional velcro.
With this tape the pedals are fixed as hell. I need some tools to get between pedal and board to get them disconnected.
You need just tiny pieces of tape on your pedals. That's also a big plus!
The pedals 'click' in the tape on the board.
I only have to buy more of it, one meter is very little, you'll need more for a midsize board.
I did not put full strips of velcro on the board-side. Only the positions where the pedals have their tape. But that makes configuration of the board less flexible. So I am rethinking this approach. Which means I need 5x 80cm only for the board. That'll get quite expensive. But I think it is worth it.

Best Tape (Beware stong grip)
I was tired of using the typical hooked/material velcro system on my pedalboard because if you are gigging a lot & moving your effects board around, pedals are constantly falling off /unsticking which can be stressful when you arrive at a gig, you open your board bag & your pedalboard is a dirty mess, most velcro products are just not reliable enough. The Thomann Pedal Board Tape is very strong & the glue is really effective also....the only thing is it is a little too strong, so if you do use this product & if you need to move your pedals around on the board, instead of fighting to pull the pedals off with your bare hands (& you will) just take a flat tool like a paint scraper or even a butter knife & gently push it under the space between the pedal & the board, this will unhook the pedal from the board with ease. A great product

Reliable solution
I definitely prefer it to velcro: it's enough less for a better result.

Tight!
Like the title says: it's tight. Ultra tight. High quality tape.

Use on every board build
This stuff is amazing. I'll never go back to standard velcro. The difference in stability is incredible. I realise it is expensive but it is worth every penny.

Next best thing to epoxy resin
Make sure you are happy with your pedal board arrangement BEFORE you press down the pedals, because once this tape is locked together you will practically need tools to remove the pedals.
On the plus side ... in use, your pedals will never, ever ... EVER ... EVER shift or fall off.

Fantastic stuff, better than regular velcro
This stuff is the best! It sticks to itself like concrete. Don’t use too much on one pedal, because you just won’t get the pedal off your board anymore! I use small strips in the corners of the pedals for big pedals, and only centred top and bottom for smaller ones. 1 meter takes you a long way, though for a full pedalboard I’d suggest 2 packs as you most likely want to paste full strips on the board itself. Removing the stuff from a pedal is way easier then regular velcro. Highly recommended!
