Harvey - how much do you charge and what's your turn-around time? :)

It's a pain in the arse job to do properly, when I did mine it was a bare frame so it was easier..!!
I would probably strip the frame so as to get it everywhere.. :lol:
Not sure at the moment time wise will have a think and pm you.. :thumbup:

Harvey - took your recommendation and ordered some of this Rhino tape.

Seems pretty thick but easy enough to fit, if you don't rush it. Didn't have to resort to water for the bits I've done so far. :high5:

I need to get some more which is a bit wider to do some other sections but i'll be buying the same stuff again.

Good to hear you had an easy time with it, like I said if you get the good stuff it's not a problem.
Take your time and it works..:)

I wrapped 3 bikes now using 2 different tapes- cheaper one and 3M both from ebay. 3M was thicker and better to work with. I couldn't quite work out the technique with the soapy water as there is always some moisture left behind. Without water the results were better. Cost is about a tenner per bike if 150mm tape is used.
