I thought it was a little strange at first, but shellac can be very useful if you're a fan of cloth bar tape.
Thanks for watching!

I’ve been using Mint Mobile for about a year now. I’ll be honest, it took a little while for it to work as I expected (likely my fault). The service has been great, and I’m saving a bunch of money. $15/month for 4gb of data. I never come close to using my allowance. If you look at your mobile bill every month and wonder why it’s so expensive-it doesn’t have to be! Try Mint Mobile! fbuy.me/qo2f-

I've been using shellac on my bar tape for about 10 years now. I just touch up the worn spots a few times a year: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AAI6vT-xB8A.htmlsi=mawtfnUlEDc1UnKI Nice thing is it dries so fast, if I see a lighter colored area, I can hit it with some fresh shellac just before heading out on a ride. I keep a Mason jar with some denatured alcohol in it to rinse off brushes. Never had a problem with the brushes getting stiff, but if they do, just soak them in some alcohol and the dried shellac will dissolve. I also use shellac for woodworking finishing, put some of that on to seal the wood before applying another finish. You can also purchase shellac flakes and make up your own finish as needed.

An old timer shared this technique with me. Thank you for showing levels of application on several colors. Great video.

The cheapest vodka you can find is a (relatively almost entirely) non-toxic alternative to denatured alcohol and does everything with shellac that denatured alcohol does. Kremer Pigments is a good source for high-quality shellac (in its “dry” form - just add vodka!) in small quantities that will be cheaper or the same cost as hardware store shellac, and it will be a lot better quality and not toxic. I appreciate your straightforward reasoning. If only there were more voices like yours in bicycleworldia. I would enjoy hearing you interview Grant P.

This is funny because I just talked to a woman this morning that uses cheap vodka as a laundry additive! Crazy

Extremely important topic this week, Chris 🤗.Thanks for covering this. I use household ammonia to clean up after applying shellac; it works wonders. I do the ammonia cleanup outdoors because it stinks to high heavens. I apply shellac to the bar tape maybe twice annually even though the tape is black. It maintains the bar tape with a "fresh" appearance. The local hardware store had a six or eight ounce can of shellac (a lifetime supply) rather than the three- or four-lifetime supply in a 32-ounce can. One of these days I'll get the urge to change tape color...
