It's great and one day I'll want to buy some... and I can imagine the face of the guy at the shop when I ask for "Apa sticky tape" Edited March 1, 2014 by mcnach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Starr Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I'd like three black ones, the dipped small chamfer would be good, but any will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there are other products that will work perfectly, it's just that this particular tape was known to work really well. Thank you!

Diablo Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Mod approval sorted but I need to post up on the affiliates section. I cannot do much as I only have my phone due to travelling until Friday. As a luddite I don't know how to use the basschat mobile site to post links etc or to set up basschat discounts on my site. Will sort it over the weekend but in the meantime will do via pm.

MoonBassAlpha Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Most of that sort of tape can be softened gently with a hairdryer then prised away. You don't need to go mad with the heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A final gentle rub with something like lighter fluid seems to remove all traces, if there are any left. I only had rubbing alcohol at hand once, and it removed it also.
