Correction tape is a handy tool used to cover mistakes made while writing or typing. It consists of a thin strip of tape coated with a white, opaque material that can be applied over errors on paper. Once applied, it creates a smooth surface that allows for writing or printing over the corrected area. This product is often preferred over liquid correction fluid because it dries instantly and does not smudge. Correction tape comes in various widths and styles, including refillable dispensers, making it easy to carry and use in different settings, such as schools or offices.
