Was doing an inspection today where I found ye olde red Tuck tape used on plastic inside.
When I went to the CCMC site, I could find the testing for the blue tape, but not the red .... and the CCMC database doesn't mention colour.

I'm wondering - has the Red Tuck tape been approved for use on polyethelene and I just can't find it?
 
CCMC 11955-R deals with both red and blue (see product descriptions) and is only for sheathing. Alternatively, CCMC 14018-R is for the blue tape and is for vapour and air barriers.
