White spirits for getting the tacky off. Or hot water and a knife as we've done on more than one occasion John haha. | ||

 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | If you want tacky that doesn't require heating then possibly the ostlund stuff isn't the best. Any time I've used it I've had to heat it up first (this possibly does have something to do with me staying in the north of Scotland) it then solidifies again before the end of my stone run. The best tacky I've found that doesn't need any heating is spider tack comp grade. Not the cheapest but I think you get what you pay for. | ||

Yeah I did find in cold weather it wasn't easy to apply but just think it's the best,there was a conversation I had with my former friend and gym owner were he gave me instructions on making my own...with my family safety in mind I decided against it lol | ||

He reckoned that his neighbours suspected he was cooking up meth breaking bad style. | ||
