Just rip a blob out of tub andd work it in hands and apply! Simples I've used spider tack quite a few times and I will go against the grain here and say in some I ve not always had good results with it (withOUT heating). I cant remember which type I had - I think it was the normal, not 'lite' stuff. On a few occasions I was literally having to reapply it after each stone rep!  | ||

I found spider tacky great for one stone and rubbish for a run, it also takes ages to get it ready if you need to reapply. Try working the leg wax with your hands until it looks a bit like spider tacky then apply a few layers on your arms. Its also loads cheaper than spider tacky | ||

Member 4936, 7288 postsSQ 270, BP 155, DL 270 695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | In the winter when I'm outside or in the garage, ill put the spider smacky by my space heater, but basically just slap in on . I place a little glob on my knuckle side of your hand. Sometimes you need it when they give you dirty balls. | ||
