Metal tape will usually hold the longest.
That's my experience with all three.
Personally I just stick the UTH to the tank as intended. Better heat transfer. The times I've removed a UTH (do it while heated up) I would use aluminum tape to reattach if I didn't want any hassles with it coming loose. Duct tape eventually dries out and becomes brittle.
