Tape is one of the most useful – and versatile – tools in a DIYer’s arsenal. Just ask MacGyver! There’s really only one snag – given enough time, tape tends to lose some of its stickiness.

Use a microwave to refresh not-so-sticky tape

Don’t throw it out and run to the store to buy a fresh roll, though. Just like MacGyver, you can get out of this bind with a little improvisation and creativity – and a microwave! Simply stick the tape in there for a few seconds, and it’ll be good as new. Just make sure you don’t overheat it.
