"Duck Tape" is actually a real product, although not made from or for
ducks. It is made by a company called "Duck" and their tape products
come in various colours, colours, and transparent. :-) ><https://www.tapeplanet.com/clear-duck-tape-brand-duct-tape-transparent-1-88-x-20-yard-roll>

I bought a roll once. It was probably the best duct tape (used on a
lot of things, but not ducts) I ever had. Very tenacious.
But when I tried to replace, the store didn't have it.
So now I am back to ordinary duct tape. At least I am buying it in
various colors: red at present, next up: lime green. I can date some
of my repairs by the color of the tape!
I'm glad to hear they are still around.

For most of my life, I thought 'duck tape' was a illiterate term
for 'duct tape'.
I was wrong.
Only in the last 10 years did I learn that the original product
used cotton duck, a fabric, as its base, and 'duck tape' was
correct.

-a-a-a-aYou were not wrong.-a Duct Tape is used for taping Air Ducts together
at the joints to avoid leaking air and wasting power.-a Cotton duck may be used to make some of it but that is just an ingredient not the product or
its original utility.-a Currently Duct Tape may use steel foil as the backing
for the strong adhesive.

The only proper term is "Duct Tape", as per original usage.
Duck is a brand name, not a generic term.

Don't do this! Use proper gaffer's tape: it will hurt much less when it
is removed and it won't leave goo behind like athletic tape.
