Pietenpol-List: Pinked vs. straight tapes

[matronics]

Original Posted By: Jack Phillips
On my first project I used only straight tapes, not sure why. I think whenI got the video from FFP with my 404 kit, that is their main product.Had the normal problems where you had to learn technique to lay the tapes.But the edges always had that little scallop effect. Not continiously butalot of them through the taping. That was nothing that you couldn't fixwith a warm iron. But time consuming.Now with my Pietenpol, decided to try pinked tapes, man, what a difference!The tapes seem to go on relaxed, without the edges fighting the tapes.Stayed away from the pinked tapes originally because I heard that pinkedtapes weren't from that time period, but after research found out they cameout in the 20's.What is everyone elses experience with this????walt-----------------------------------------------------________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2001 20:11:58 -0400
