I've used it, no different to stans tape.
One of the only decent things superstar sell

I've got it currently wrapped round 4 wheels, no issues with it.

Never used Stans but I imagine it can't be any different.

Superstar valves work fine too.

No problems here too. Highly recommend both tape and valves.

I've just done my first wheel with the Tesa equivalent tape and having no problems.
Cost about £10 for the roll but its 66m long so should be good for anothet 30 or so wheels...

Superstar stuff works fine, but what's this Tesa 66m stuff? Sounds a bargain.

Search ebay for "tesa 4289" and youll find it.
Check the widths, 19 or 25mm availabld I think.

I used the 29mm stuff, it was good but no where near as good quality as the stans tape I have.

I've used Stans yellow tape and duct tape in the past and despite having both in my toolbox my preference now is for duct tape. Just find it more durable when levering really hard to get on tyres. Worked on a non-tubeless ready rim with just 2 layers and no rim strip. Cheap stuff from Clas Ohlson too at £2 a roll, has done 4 rims and still some left. Only faff is to cut it to size, which isn't really any faff at all
