What kinda of tape do you use?
So some one earlier posted a thread about tape earlier the other day and well it went kinda crazy with back shaving and hand taping and what not. I'm sure if someone were to judge this site upon one thread only and that was the thread they would think were a bunch of loonies, a fun bunch atleast but...
Anyways It kinda got me thinking about a problem I have been seeing with my tape. I tape all but one razor and that is because I have an experiment going with that one. The problem I am running into is that all but one of my tape rolls leave residue that is just the biggest annoyance. And the one tape that doesn't leave any is almost gone and has no marking or labels so I don't know who makes it. I picked up a roll of "Super 33" as I thought I remembered hearing people use that alot for razors but I was mistaken and it was "Super 88" that they used.
But really what I want to know is will the Super 88 leave gunk on the razor. Is there any that won't leave any. I have a razor with alot of file work and the gunk likes to get in there and its almost impossible to get out. Or if tape no matter what kind I get will leave residue, what do you use to get it off. I have tried everything from trying to scratch it off to water and soap and trying alcohol and some work better than other but none work really at all.
Mind you this is not a thread about taping versus not taping. I tape most and one I don't thats what it is and what it will be. Just purely a question about what tape doesn't leave residue or how to get that residue off.
