The conti crabon specific stuff. It gives an extra strong hold incase the rims overheat. Which makes it a bit trickier to apply. But once its on, its on.
The real issue is that it was definitly stronger than the glue used to apply the base tape. So even once I'd worked an opening. I couldnt just use brute force.
