The Bic Wite-Out Correction Tape, 2 tapes per pack is one of my most favorite business products. I discovered it this past summer and have been wowed ever since.
Back story: I worked all summer in my school library (where I am librarian), trying to finish automating our collection (putting information about each book, DVD, etc. into a database), making that information accessible for keeping records of patron check-outs (borrowing books) and other such record-keeping information.
Every time I made a mistake I had to use wite-out Papermate’sStock Color All Purpose Correction Fluid, 22 ml Bottle, Green (PAP57101) Category: Correction Fluids and Pens or BIC Wite-Out Super Smooth Correction Fluid, 0.7 oz. Bottle, White , 12 per Pack (WOFSM12WE). I’m sure you know the problem with liquid wite-out–you must wait a good while for the white to dry or else your ink will smear.
The Bic Wite-Out Correction Tape is perfect! There is no drying time. It rolls on perfectly in one quick stroke. Or, you can roll slowly. Fast or slow, the white goes on and stays on and completely hides the error. I totally love this product. A picky but interesting minor reason to like it is its vivid case colors: that deep blue, an emerald green, a vibrant orange.
I first tried the two-pak because my great-niece was working with me. Although she was only eleven at the time, she is a good worker and is a whiz at computers. I had a tape and she had one. However, she and the wite-out-on-tape did not get along. In fact, in no time she broke her tape and I had to discard the product.
I had carefully shown her how to use it. See that circle on the product? You place your thumb in it to get a correct hold, then press the whole dispenser flat against the error and roll. It’s really very easy. After she broke a second one, she lost that job and started another task. But I have no problem in holding the dispenser.
I love this product and recommend it 100% but add that for some people it just won’t cooperate.

Bic Wite Out tape is pretty good, the casing is one of the best I’ve used (much better than those elongated ones) however the tape doesn’t want to stick to paper at times. After every use you have to press down on the tape to make it adhere to the paper well because it just won’t stick otherwise. One plus is that it lasts a long time though. I use this at work all the time and have some at my home (no I didn’t steal them from work) and the one I own has lasted over a year.

I purchased this Bic Wite-Out correction tape & have used it
extensively & it has exceeded my expectations.
I’ve read at least 3 low reviews from others stating that their
child pulled out the tape & it doesn’t work correctly now.
Parents, this has nothing to do with the product. Not sure why
you would blame the product if your child pulls out the tape. Of
course it won’t work then.
Buy it. It works as advertised.

compact and don’t have to worry about it drying up on you like regular wite-out that comes in fluid form.

Rolls out smoothly. However, laying it on it’s side after years of using one that stand up, makes using this product a little difficult.
