Not sure about all the uv hype, many of the manufactures advertise as "uv" tape, is just the colour pattern 948 from WTP and wtp tape company does not claim that to be uv tape. Uv or not, the tape does have good low light refractory and is high flash in bright sun. That being said "uv" tape is mostly blue/purple hues and I am a green guy. Started to play around with the tapes that familiar bite offers, and the "chinook hunter true uv", is impressive "uv" tape with green hues.
