I prefer Continental's glue that comes in the yellow tubes......
Just the correct consistency so you can easily spread them evenly on rims and base tapes with your finger...
Also just the right amount of glue in the tubes so there's not too much left in the tube after you are done, so no waste.
Got to try Vittoria's glue when the guy behind the counter at the LBS gave me the "No Coke,..Pepsi!" response when I asked for a couple of tubes of Continental glue. The Vittoria glue seems to work well at first, but I later noticed that the edges of my tubs were lifting easily when I pulled on them (Uninflated) to check them. I think you need to use more glue with Vittoria to get good results,........so back to Continental glue for me!
