[cool][#0000ff]I have used it a couple of times on my tubes and helped a fellow tuber on the water at one time. But I have not taken my air bladders out of the covers later to check for curling so I don't know. All I know is that it stuck well after cleaning the surface with the wipe pads and pressing it firmly with the rounded back end of a screw driver.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I suspect that if it is used on a surface either not properly cleaned beforehand...or exposed to sun and the elements...that almost anything might be subject to eventual separation around the edges. However, if it is inside a tube or toon...with the continuous pressure of the bladder against the outside cover...it would probably never come loose enough to reexpose a pinhole leak.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I am sure that the urethane tape made by Aire is the best product. It actually bonds and becomes a part of the urethane bladder over time. Hard to beat that.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Glad you liked the smoked kitty. I know a guy who makes it up fresh quite often. Last batch was some of the best ever. Too bad you missed out. [/#0000ff]
