had one of those days... & the white paint I coated out some boards with when I was low on one-shot & got cheap on myself started giving me grief because the vinyl doesn't stick nearly as well to cheap paint.

I had already nearly damaged a logo attempting to remove the high-tac transfer tape. I decided to stop right then & put it aside to work on the boards that were done with one shot untill I had the patience to return to the problem.

When I did go back to fight with the tape removal crisis, I finally remembered a rapid-tac claim that I rarely take advantage of. It does release the adhesive from the back of the transfer tape when sprayed down on the surface of it. I usually don't bother with this step, but in a situation like today.. IT WAS A LIFE SAVER!! (I really was getting suicidal fighting with that stuff...I usually LOVE this job, but not being able to do as simple a task as removing application tape can be a bit frustrating)

Thank you R.T.

Doug, when will you learn that Rapid-stuffs do everything from cooling a burned hand (I can attest to that) to being the perfect salad dressing (someone else claimed that but I've been too afraid to try it.) [Wink]

When in doubt, remember Roger knows all

[Smile] I've missed you lately Roger. Glad to see your smiling face around these parts

Yeah, I'm a recent Rapid Tac convert myself. Thanks for the samples you sent me Roger. I feel as if I've found magic potions. Rapid Prep, application fluid and adhesive remover are staples for me now. They make my work so much easier (especially adhesive remover.) I love the smell of the application fluid, I can see why someone might put it on a salad!!!

I never doubted Roger or his instructions, but regardless of what it can do to heal skin burns, I haven't come across the details on how it regenerates burnt braincells, so until I do I may still suffer the trauma of a job in crisis while the "solution" sits nearby on the shelf.

Good to be back Chris, and thanks for the kind words! [Wink]
My wife accuses me of "thinking" I know it all,
I tell her "if I did, I wouldn't keep making mistakes".

p.s. DON'T DRINK THE STUFF, it won't help with burnt brain cells.

Well now, thats a great question, and an oppertunity for you to research for us !! [Razz]

Actually I put up quite a bit of wallpaper (self adhesive type) with Rapid TacII, but I didn't have any to take down (using R.T you just don't have any re-dos)! [Eek!]

I bet the Rapid Remover would do it though, just spray it right on the paper, it should soak thru.

Want a sample? [Confused]

In the soon to be released movie: "My Big Fat Hawaiian Wedding", the father (Roger) believes that Rapid Tac II is the cure for all ills. All linguistic units from all cultures can be traced back to the original Rapid Tac.

If anyone wants to invest in this coming smash hit, please send unmarked bills to me. I'll take care of the rest.
