Double-sided tape for photo backdrops?

Occasionally i use a large portable draped cloth photo background, and i find it's helpful to use double-sided tape in a few spots (where it first meets the ground in the back) to avoid bunching as people enter & exit. I have used carpet tape, and this worked quite well -- until i had to remove it (residue) [EDIT: residue on the backdrop, not the floor]. What's a good option that won't be terribly hard to remove at the end of the shoot? Usually the ground is carpet. I can loop gaffer tape, but a proper double sided option works better IMO. I do also tape the edges all around (w gaffer tape).
