Yes, but seeing as I don't have a pit bitch or personal mechanic, it's ME who is going to be cleaning my rims... I don't really fancy having to angle grind basetape and leftover rubber off my rims every time I change tyres.
Firstly, you don't need (or even should) clean rims bare every time you change tyres. Old mastic should only be removed when it is old and flaky and with alu rims a good rub down with an acid (wire) brush is generally sufficient. If the layers of glue are getting too thick you can remove them. That is generally after a number of tyre changes. Here too there is no need to get the rim totally clean.
Mastik one, properly applied, seems to give adequate hold. My experience with conti carbon glue is not the same (though the alu-specific one hasn't killed me yet). Mastik one it is.
Mastik One (just a Conti standard)--- as I wrote--- gives a good hold on the road. For the track it is sub-optimal. As an aside: I would not bother with Conti carbon glue with carbon road rims.
