Be careful when using the term plumber's tape. It used to almost exclusively refer to the galvanized metal, plastic or copper strapping with holes in it used to hang pipes. The term has been co-opted and now refers to both the original stuff and to teflon pipe sealing tape. Confusion is guaranteed.

This is how you know the guy offering help really knows his plumbing stuff. If you ask for plumbers tape and they ask back metal or plastic.
