    I used eBay to get the tape to cover the cranks and other bits. Was only about £1.50 IIRC, fast delivery too.

    Oh and good luck attempting to cover a frame…

    Why would you want to cover a whole frame?

    Is the ‘thickness’ the same as justridingalong’s?

    Personally I always get mine from http://www.convertape.com and I can't praise them highly enough. More importantly their product is the best I have found over the years I have been using it.

    Check them out null

    Both the same thickness, a micron is 1000th of a mm, so 360microns is .36mm

    I believe.

    Bike Tart – far better than the older green stuff I've used in the past

    Asitis,

    How long is the tape from convertape I'm assuming it's 100mm wide?

    bought a roll of clear tape from Wickes a few weeks back, not massively thick but is fairly tough and is working a treat, especially for less than £3 a roll.

    How come Asitis only posts to say how good convertape are and he says he always uses them but only used them for the first time a few weeks ago?

    Drac, I have bought from them 3 times in the last few weeks ?!? Why is that so strange?? I initially bought 1 length to see the quality then bought more…. I don't know why I'm even replying actually as I have no need to appease you?!

    You can buy it by the metre on their site, I don't know if they offer anything else as I haven't spoken to them.
