I have started to build a cabinet from an exsisitng cabinet I got at Canadian Tire. Its kinda you standard cabinet with two big doors and the Ikea Style shelfs and Hinges. I have lined the inside iwth plastic paper I got from the Grow store white/black Now I need to stop the light leaks.

A so noone knows what im doing Stealth. and B so my flowering room does not get affected by my smaller grow room. I have looked at my options and I have used weather stripping where I can but because of the hinges and the style that they are it doesn't allow me to use weather stripping on the sides of the cabinet.

I know duct tape will work but I am wondering if anyone else knows a better solution as I am afarid of the duct tape falling off over time. I can get some pictures tonight. If you need to see what im talking about.

Will duct tape even work anyways? It seems like kinda a hack solution. But if others have used it successfully. I might as well too.

any help is greatly appreciated

duct tape is made for duct work like heating it will not become loose or fall off unless directly lit on fire
