Hi All,

Back in the 70's when I was mechanic to he BCF, Ian Hallam had a tub roll of on Leicester track. Tub rolling is instant death to a mechanic!. It transpired that the solvent in the Fast Tack had dissolved the adhesive between the base tape and the Tub, and the base tape was still firmly attached to the rim. Since then I have been very wary of Fast Tack.
