Sometimes you want to tape something down, such as a
photograph, but don't want the adhesive to muck up the
actual item. This tape has small, bubblewrap-type pockets of
glue on one side. You press firmly enough to pop the sections
you want glue to emanate from so that bits sticky leaving the
rest unsullied.
This concept would also work for "Police - Do Not Cross" type
tape where the coppers currently have to tie it onto whatever
is handy because it has no adhesive at all. If there is a
doorway or a car wreck which they want to tape off without
any obvious tying points they can glue the ends without hassle
or a wide swath of exposed adhesive.

Oh. I thought this would be a roll of bubble wrap with stickyness on one side. So that you could apply a bubble wrap strip to something. I would have bunned that. |

[Custardguts] what you are asking for is already
baked. |

The concept of the main idea sounds interesting.
The problem I see is that adhesive can be
accidentally deployed later from other parts of the
tape if pressure is applied |

I believe it could work, and would be cool. There, have a
sticky bun.+ |

Two part epoxy in adjoining bubbles. The un-poped
would freeze solid in a few weeks, if my experience with epoxy shelf life is typical. |

You don't want Mom to stick to the photo album, if she falls asleep looking at it. |
