Goodness! I am of the exact opposite 180 antipodal dissimilar reverse opinion!
I've done a lot of Tressostar wraps with no issues whatsoever, but my attempt with Newbaum's turned into a loose sticky unsalvageable mess.
- Do you not wet-out your tape to help stretch the edges? (When it dries it gives a good tight wrap.)
