Yes, that is the
advantage of cheap masking tape. It self destructs. At least it does here
in the strong Idaho sun.

I don't use any electrical tape or any sticky tapes. The reason being if you do get good growth and the growth is pushing if you take off the tapes it most times peels the bark or messes up the cambium growth.

I like cheap masking tape. It peels off easily. In fact most of the time
the weather does it for me.

I've been reading this with interest, as I made my
first feeble grafting attempts a couple of weeks back
(how long until I know if they took?)
As well as the rubbers, I tried some black electrical
tape, which seems to me was mentioned awhile back but
not in these recent discussi ons. Is this a good (hmm,
Honda civic hatchback) technique?
Also, I tried cutting my first whip-and-tougue grafts
with a razor; perhaps my scions and rootstock were too
tough, but it was impossible to get a good diagonal
cut through pencil size wood with the razor blade -
the blade isn't strong enough, and the holder got in
the way. A kitchen knife might work better.
