    Thinking of putting reflective tape on my tailgate top and sides for hauling with it down

    tape will be low profile and stick onto the relentless fab metal skin

    and be less goofy than these stick ons

    no more tie a red flag or towel to worry about

    IMG_5197.jpg IMG_5199.jpg IMG_5198.jpg

    On second thought, a couple of magnets of this kept in the truck to pull out when hauling sounds better
    To avoid being a light show every time the tailgate opens for 2 seconds

    I was at a train crossing in Arizona when a freight train passed by. It had some super reflective tape on it. I wonder where to get it?

    I frequently haul 12' long bars of steel in my bed so I keep a few feet of red flag tape in my bed cubby. My hauling is always in daylight so no need for the reflective stuff.

    probably Amazon, Home Depot, etc
    Hopefully it’s actual solid reflective tape and not the clear kind they also sell to temporarily patch holes in busted tail lights

    Might be the same stuff they use on semi trailers, any truck stop should have rolls of it, or trailer parts or repair shop.

    Google FRA 224 reflective tape. It's rail industry specific, federally required. (I work for a railcar manufacturing company).

    Edit: and it's for sale!

    Man the stuff was super reflective! I'll look that up. Should make my Minnie Winnie highly visible!
