Comparing Gudy DS Tapes: Which One is Right for You?




In the video above, we showcase the differences between the three types of Gudy DS double-sided tapes—each designed for archival-quality mounting with unique adhesive properties.


Gudy DS tapes are ideal for paper, prints, photographs, and other delicate materials, featuring a solvent-free, aging-resistant, and permanently elastic adhesive that won’t become brittle or bleed over time. Plus, all variations have passed the Photo Activity Test (ISO 18916) for safe use with photographic materials.


Gudy DS Tape Comparison:


Gudy DS 10 (Reversible / Reversible) – Best for temporary mounting, mock-ups, and layouts

  • Repostionable adhesive on both sides.

  • Low initial tack allows repositioning or removal for up to 24 hours.

  • Bond strengthens after 24 hours.

  • Ideal for: Mock-ups, design layouts, temporary displays, or situations where repositioning is needed.


Gudy DS 11 (Reversible / Permanent) – Best for aligning prints and delicate materials before committing to a permanent bond

  • One side repositionable, the other permanent.

  • The repositionable side allows repositioning for up to 24 hours.

  • After 24 hours, both sides bond permanently.

  • Ideal for: Mounting artwork, prints, or photographs where precise placement is needed before final adhesion.


Gudy DS 12 (Permanent / Permanent) – Best for long-term, secure mounting

  • Strong permanent adhesive on both sides.

  • High initial tack sets immediately for a secure hold.

  • Ideal for: Permanent mounting of artwork, portfolio assembly, bookbinding applications, or high-strength adhesive needs.


Each roll is 33m long and comes with a silicone paper backing for easy handling.
