Rim tape - WTF?

How do you get this fucking shit off?Just spent 30 mins with a hair dryer &
got about an inch off.

Its so thin it just flakes off in half mm bits?

Anyone know of a magic product?

a proper ****.

its so you can poop star shapes or triangles.

 

If in doubt, try WD40.

 

Sounds like protection against split ends.

 

Googling for cunts and R1s gives far too many hits, can you be more
precise?[/QUOTE]

Add "Nige" to the search criterea ;-)

 

Something to break down the solvent: try paraffin, white spirit,
WD40 or some other IsoPropyl Alcohol (IPA) based product, eg

Had me thinking for a bit - I always thought it was the tape that protects
the inner tube from the ends of the spokes/spoke-nipples.

 

It is, but he's a northerner so you have to make allowances.

 

mines factory fit as standard (red), I don't think its supposed to come off

 

Hammerite.

 

Wider black rim tape

Got it off, what a fucking job tho!
