I offer you a selection of the most unusual ways useful tape.
1. Get rid of pet hair on your clothes
If you have pets, then you're probably familiar with this problem - clear of wool clothing. Usually for this purpose, buy a special sticky roller or just spend on clothes wet hand, the second method is not very effective, and the roller can not be together. In this case, you can use scotch tape: rewind the tape a little bit of a roll, apply the sticky side of the garment and pull sharply - all the hairs stuck to clothing will be on the tape. By the way, in the same way, you can save your favorite sweater from the pellets without damaging the fabric.
2. If you get a splinter splinter
sitting not too deep, you can use scotch tape to eject. Need to stick tape to the affected area of skin and pull sharply in the same direction as the splinter entered. Just note that you need to do everything quickly, without making an attempt to pull the splinter out gradually, otherwise there is a risk that it will break, and some of it will remain in the skin. If you do it right, it will splinter quite easily. The definite advantage of this method over the traditional vykovyrivaniem with a needle that you do not leave the skin more damage and do not make the wound deeper.
3. Stop the bleeding
If you have a shallow but painful wound, and the blood did not want to stop, then thoroughly rinse well, pinch the edge of the wound together and stick to this place tape - blood quickly stop. However, when you do get to the first aid kit, then treat the wound with iodine or green paint.
A similar way, you can use scotch tape to prevent blisters. If you feel that shoes are unbearably rubbed his leg, but again there is no adhesive tape, glue tape to this place: the skin will not be in direct contact with the shoes, and thus immediately become easier.
4. The tips of shoelaces fix
Over time, even the tips of the highest quality laces are deteriorating and vdet holes in their shoes becomes very problematic. If the wind Frayed ends of stationery tape, then they will look almost like new, and vdet holes in them will be easy
5. Make a tape of custom sculptures
Nowadays, artists often use tape for this purpose. Some, for example, the famous Mark Janis, made from adhesive tape human figures in natural size. For this purpose, a man wearing tight clothes you do not mind mess, and then wrapped with plastic wrap on top of the fine to tape does not stick directly to clothing and glued on top of scotch. Artists recommend pre-cut small strips of tape length of 15-20 cm and gradually stick them on the body of a "model" in several layers. When the sculpture is ready, the dense layers of the tape carefully cut from the body of the "model", and then re-connect in places cut by means of the same tape or glue resistant. Of course, similarly to wrap tape of any thing
6. Manicure
To do this, take the tape medium tack and nail polish. Start by checking how well the tape is held on the nail - it is important that it is easy to come unstuck. If everything is OK, you can proceed directly to the manufacture of nails. First, paint the nail varnish in a single layer, and wait until it is completely dry. Then cut tape in different shapes - squares, triangles, abstractions. It is desirable that the figures have more acute angles. Then stick the tape to the nails, cover it with paint of a different color, and gently remove the excess tape with tweezers. The result will be abstract patterns on your nails - in the places where you are stuck on the nails tape, and then removed it will be visible varnish, which you originally covered the nails
7. Make a frosted glass transparent
If stick tape on frosted glass, you will go through to see almost as well as through transparent. The fact that the light falling on the surface of the matte dissipates, and the adhesive layer on the adhesive tape fills irregularities in matte, resulting in light rays more easily pass therethrough
8. Invent
graphene Graphene - an ultra-thin layer of carbon just one atom thick, and at the moment is the most durable of all materials known to man. Due to its thickness, it is crystal clear. But even more interesting it surprising properties and the manner in which the material was first obtained. To create graphene its discoverers Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov needed tape.
Researchers took a pencil, graphite stuck to the tape, and then unstick it - on the left side of the adhesive layer of graphite one atom thick. Next tape was dissolved by chemicals, and the result is a graphene - the experience can easily be replicated in the home.
