Hello! Does anyone have experience with any of the joist tape from Amazon? I’ve only used brand name in the past but building a deck at a rental property and rather NOT spend $300 on tape (top of joist/beam/connectors protection). Any experience or advice is greatly appreciated.

I have only used Grace and it has met my expectations
Top option is zip-tape imo but that gets pricey.
Most of the Amazon brand stuff is just vinyl or pvc backed butyl tape. I used an Amazon brand on a project over a year ago and it seems to be holding up fine. The application was a pain as it had a cellophane backing that tore semi often.
