Aside from this kind, can you recommend the best type of rugs/carpet tape which has lesser or no residue issues at all?

According to the product literature, Polyken 105C or 105C-P tapes are designed to remove adhesive-residue free. I do not have personal experience with the product.

In my opinion... the Rug Doctor. I previously owned a Bissel upright unit...the trigger (which when pulled releases the soap onto the carpet) never worked properly. Bissel units are entirely plastic. I didn't care for it because it didn't perform. This small hand held Rug Doctor performs very well...BUT again it is a spot cleaner. Hope this helps

The preferred product for carpet stains is Folex: http://www.folexcompany.com/

I used te tape to stick my rug on carpet. The Both rug and carpet will be fine, since I removed it once and both looked fine, but not sure about wood-floor, havent tried it on that.

no just use double sided carpet tape to keep rug in place this is to tape sections of the same carpet together then you use a special iron that seal them together

It is very strong tape. It holds pieces of carpet on our hardwood stairs with everyone running up and down, including two dogs. I recommend it for your purpose. I don't know about residue as we never take our carpet pieces up. We just vacuum them in place. You could read and see if the glue is water soluble, hence washable.

I recommend non-slip rug pad. You can find it here on Amazon, but most large chain retailers (Walmart) will also sell them! Hope that helps!

If by 'film residue' you are referring to the adhesive that is used to lay down engineered wood flooring, yes, this cleaner does the job very well. I tried two other brands of adhesive remover, but the results were terrible. A small portion of my wood floor was actually damaged by the other brands.

Try a small region first, I have had no problems with product, However I have white wool rugs so color change has not been an issue. But the product is one of the best I have ever used. I find if you let the spill ( cat through up ) dry first then scrape off the surface, then vacuum first then apply product. works great, stain come's right to the surface then just blot away.

Any carpet shampoo liquid will work....there are even receipes to make your own on the internet.

It will not. I have applied to my wood floor and removed at least once or twice and it has not left any marks or residue. The carpet has shown no signs of damage as well. For example, I had to move a large piece of furniture through my entry way and I peeled the carpet back and then reseated it once I was done. The tape has maintained its tackiness the whole time with no issues.

You don't need the strips btw, I used 3m double stick tape, also Elmer's makes a double stick perm tape or you can use carpet tape that you can just cut with scissors.

My carpet is fine but I don't know about the floor boards. As far as I know, it's safe and hasn't damaged my carpet or paint on my walls. I went spider crazy and just sprayed everything. No damage anywhere thus far

I have not used it for a "throw rug to carpet" application but use it to keep throw rugs in place on laminate floors and it works great and leaves no residue. Using this tape on throw rugs allows you to vacuum without moving or sucking up the rug. From my view point, it's a great product just to have around for various applications.

I use the "Ultra Stop Non-Slip Indoor Rug Pad 8' x 8'; also bought on Amazon. It works very well.

As far as I know, all the tapes have the same adhesive. I also do not think they will leave residue like other tapes. I would try it on an inconspicuous spot to see.

Hi. I can only tell you what I found out when I did research before I bought this tape. This tape is specifically engineered to work carpet on carpet. There are other tapes engineered specifically for carpet on wood or tile. So, from this research I'd say no, another product would probably be better. Hope this helps. Have a wonderful day. Sharon
