  1. I am planning on switching from Fast Tack to Tufo tape, and
    I'm wondering: do I have to remove my old glue residue or
    can I lay the tape down on top of it?

    Thanks, Billy Andrews

  2. It's fine to lay it on top....as long as you don't have huge
    gookie piles of glue.

    That tape is good stuff!

  3. I used it last year for both road and cyclocross. It worked
    well on the road, then I had a flat so I put a new tire on
    and added a new layer on top of the old residue, which
    worked fine, until I did a real long race in the pouring
    rain and found that gobs of glue were squashing out of the
    sides of the tire. It made for an awful mess. I also used it
    for cyclocross, it worked pretty well but started to come
    loose in the really muddy sloppy conditions. Maybe I'm not
    using it right. Overall, it's good stuff.
