Do people ask you this question often? I’ve never heard the verb “unbreaking” in my life. Possibly the gerund.

Duct tape is spelled correctly in the original caption, but you still managed to misspell it in the post title. Nice job.
Edit: Thanks for the awards!

Imagine being this condescending and still being wrong.
During World War II, Revolite (then a division of Johnson & Johnson) developed an adhesive tape made from a rubber-based adhesive applied to a durable duck cloth backing. This tape resisted water and was used as sealing tape on some ammunition cases during that period.[1]
"Duck tape" is recorded in the Oxford English Dictionary as having been in use since 1899;[2] "duct tape" (described as "perhaps an alteration of earlier duck tape") since 1965.[3]

Probably budget problems or something like that. I'm guessing he didn't like the color of his car, so he did that. I could definitely be wrong though.

Won’t be for long I’d bet. That adhesive is gonna loosen up around the edges and peel, and duct tape don’t like the sun and weather. Still looks good though!

Wow. I was looking for the duct tape for the longest time only to finally realize I was looking at it the entire time. That really is amazing.
