Red tape mainly allows red light to pass through and reflects it back. This means when you shine a white light (which has all colors) on the red tape, it absorbs all the other colors, but the red light bounces off. So, the tape looks red because it sends back red light and keeps other colors. In short, it shows red light and keeps other colors hidden.
