Never heard of a wheel called an open tubular. Vittoria calls some of their tires open tubulars...they call the clincher version of the Corsa EVO an open tubular.
Merlin - Vittoria is also making a gluing tape now...my take on the Tufo comments is that Tufo doesn't want to say it is ok to use their tape on others tires due to liability. The Tufo tape works great but can be a bit of a pain to clean off when you remove...but I suppose this is the case with any high strength adhesive.
