Velox creeps, rots, and holds moisture next to your eyelets so they can rust quicker. Also usually needs replacing if you break a spoke. Schwalbe blue plastic for general use, Veloplugs for racing. Some people like a belt and braces approach of electricians' PVC tape over Veloplugs, although I haven't tried it myself.
