What do you mean by "single use"? What did the OP mean by "one day"
use?

Some cheap tapes leave a horrible residue, others creep badly and also
leave a horrible residue, some go brittle in the sun. What is the
problem with this stuff?

I use 3M electrical tape. I use it only once although it is possible
to re wind it and use it several times if you are really cheap. It
used to be really good and leave no residue. They seem to have
changed the adhesive because now it leaves a residue after only being
on the glider for 2 days.

Here is my take on this tape. Good stuff. I have never had a
problem. It doesn't get brittle. It doesn't creep. It stays where
you want it to and goes around complex bends. It comes off when you
want it to and doesn't leave any gooey residue...unless you leave it
on for something on the order of 2 weeks. Even then the adhesive
wasn't nasty to remove.

3M stuff is good but I have only been able to find 1/2" and I think
that 3/4" wide is the minimum to seal up a glider. My $0.02.
