There are some tapes that are less likely to do this - one is called
something like Crystal Clear and doesn't yellow as badly as plain
vanilla Scotch tape or Sellotape. There are some tapes that are used
for archival purposes whiach are even better but I have never seen
them at the runn of the mill stationers.
However I think our finger chopping friend from Argentina has a point
- I'm pretty certain I have seen references to the full size stuff
getting yellowed and scratched so that it wasn't much use for what it
was supposed to do. The clear part on the back of my Land Rover hood
is certainly very yellow
