Looking to cover a frame with some heli tape 3m what is the stw favourite/ recommended or approved please?
Or any alternatives?
Cheer's
I used sign printing vinyl to good effect on my old frame. Worked well and cheap.
Got mine from a local sign printer for a couple of quid for a big sheet
I use Gorilla clear repair tape, it has a fine serrated edge but at about 6 quid a roll its a fraction of the cost of heli tape and works just fine.
Speak to Invisiframe. They do specific kits (not necessarily for your bike), or bits of tape in different sizes.
I've used Paragon tapes before - pretty good.
If it's still around the Factory FX (MX graphics company) did a pack of thick, clear 3M sheets that were pretty good - so thick that anything intricate became a work of art to get on bubble-free.
CRC were selling it off cheap a while back.
Tesa tape.
