I think the tape stinks, any time you save on the initial tire application is lost when it is time to put a new tire on. The tape is also not well suited to all types of base tapes.

The baggy is ok but I don't know that I see the point. Before I put the glue on I put some goof off on a rag and set it aside. Then I just use my pointer finger to spread on the glue, its just the right size for the rim bed, I wipe off with the rag, wash my hands and I am done. The goof off on the rag will also make it easy to wipe any excess glue off the wheel.

For those that want some written directions go to the Zipp website and look at the electronic copy of the manual that comes with their wheels. The method is pretty much what has been stated here in previous post but I thought it was clearly written and its also where I got the idea for the Goof Off cleaner (safe for carbon fiber), which is a great way to clean things up.
