Short answer.
Cling and tack describe how film layers hold to each other. Good cling helps the tail stay down and keeps wrap layers together during handling. Too much cling can create unwind or blocking problems, while too little can cause loose tails. The right level depends on manual or machine wrapping, dust, temperature, pallet surface and whether the film is clear, colored, black opaque or pre-stretched.
