The number of coats will affect the colour so you can shoot for what you want which will depend on the shellac colour and the original tape colour; I'd say four minimum. The more coats the darker it will get.

Congrats Dan...
Tres nice, Keith.
Yeah I know the trail isn't too bad - but I'll probably take the streets for speed, I don't want to hang around, especially if the weather is balls.
Thanks again... I'm thinking Jane all the way up, or maybe Davenport across to something around there like or say Keele.

Late response. No, don't use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. You want denatured (methylated) alcohol which you can get at a paint store.

Methyl alcohol will blind you (I think in moonshine it's what you get by accident when the wood in the still ferments), and is totally cool with passing through your skin, so, you know, throw on some latex when you handle that stuff.

ah the sound of ice crunching beneath your tires as stinging pellets embrace your cheeks...
i'm glad that all the cars were going as slow as i was this morning, and that it's way before "rush hour". it's actually not as cold out as it looks. i think i might have even been early, and smiling ta boot!
ride safe

Kergin...I have a bunch of good threaded cr-mo road forks for cheap....limited steerer lengths tho
Cam...I have a pair or 20's...used...you can have em if you come and get em.
As for the Colnago...I thought about it for a while and after chatting with Nadir and Nery decided to take the plunge. I will never ride this bike...strictly an investment....well that and I got a 54cm so I wouldn't be tempted.
Morning check of the B.F... now off to the shop...albeit a bit late.
