thanks for this great video using common electrical tape.works for me. do you have a video of putting on small single foot guides, as lots of the newer rods for braid line tend to use these? same technique but smaller tape? thanks John

[@gsp]

I should do one. I use a dab of hot melt under the single foot

[@leerogers6423]

Tidy work. Iv'e had it on my mind for a while to experiment with the size and location of the first butt ring on an old rod so the method just using tape would be ideal .

[@gsp]

Just be aware that the further away from the reel and small the guide the higher the chance of line slap on the blank 👍

How about amalgamating tape..on larger rings...might be a bit bulky

[@gsp]

Self amalgamating tape does get too bulky too quick and always looks untidy

[@Scogny]

Inthe first method which kind of tape did you utilised? thanks to reply

[@gsp]

The tape used is insulation tape or electrical tape

[@Scogny]

@@gsp therefore it's normal tape ? I was looking for a tape with epoxy inside.

Please could you tell me the best place to buy flex coat in the uk

[@gsp]

Its not that easy to get hold of. I think i Got mine at summerlands tackles but they havent got any. A quick google search shows some on ebay so that might be a good option 👍

Bagging tape is good
