I need some clear protector to put on my freshly painted tank where the saddle comes up against it.
I’m thinking helicopter tape - any other ideas?

I bought a roll of clear self adhesive plastic from a craft shop and i make my own. It's easy to cut and more flexible than those pre-cut spine type protectors.
I wasn't sure how it would last but so far it's been on for three or four years and it's fine. I think it is what 'Blue Peter' used to call 'sticky back plastic'!

In addition to rubber tank protectors, I use 3M clear protective film on several of my bikes to stop rubbing (Not the LC because I don’t do enough miles).
Cut it to size and shape, apply with soapy water, position and gently expel the water from the centre outwards.

 Bought a bit of 3M tape, cut it into the shape I wanted and fitted it with a spray of very very diluted soapy water. Went on a treat. I’ve a bit left over which I might see if I can get to stick between the handlebar clamps. |
