On the page linked below they sell 2 types of  lacing tape. Polyester - recommend for spot tying, and nylon - recommended for  continuous tying.  How do the properties of the two differ and how critical  is it to use one type or the other for the different tasks? Do you really need  both types?

 Thanks in advance,

  No. I can't imagine where this comes from. First,

  nobody does continuous tying any more . . . and

  you can continuous tie with binder twine and

  spot tie with chalk line . . . material has

  more to do with environmental stresses followed

  by personal preferences than it does with

  specific restraining technique.



  My personal preference is for type II,

  finish W or H polyester for it's wider temperature range

  but either style in either color will serve

  your purposes well.



  Here's a poop sheet on a major portion of the

  Mil-T-43435 lacing tapes.
