We have and use both 88 and 33 here at the Electric Utility where I work.  I    
prefer 33 because it is thinner and easier to work with.  As Stuart stated the  
only difference is the thickness of the tape.  Need more thickness add a few    
more wraps of 33.  I suppose that a 1/4" thickness of 33 would have more glue   
and holding power than a 1/4" thickness of 88...  Also less inclined to         
flagging due to temperature fluctuations.  The glue will hold a thin piece of   
33 down better than a thick piece of 88.
