Will that work on cow barrels to ?
I searched and found this thread. Can you give more specific info on this? I don't want any residue left but the self cling wrap stuff doesn't tend to stay that well... looking for better option to keep my scopes wrapped up. TIA- and to anyone else who has good experience with this.
One layer of blue masking tape, covered with another layer of Camo Duck Tape,. It provides two layers of protection. You peel off the masking tape, and the Duck tape comes off with it.
I have left it on a wooden stock for over a decade, and when time comes to remove it, it comes off with no problems, and leaves nothing behind, not even sticky.
...Or, simply paint over the masking tape, sponge painting works well here.

I thought about putting a layer of blue tape on it first then something else but with the heat and humidity we have down here, even blue tape has its limits after a long period of time. I use it every day to cover up finishes on houses. If I lived in a less hell like environment in the summer I'd probably do just that.
It was applied in Upstate NY to the stock of a Win '94 .44 Magnum; sometime in te early 200X. Obviously, it's a different heat and humidity environment.
What appears to have happened is that the Duck Tape protected the blue tape from excessive environmental exposure over the several years. All I can say for sure is that the resulting finish after removal looked like a brand new finish.
While your notes make sense, I still think it's worth a try.

That is the barrel break in procedure, not protecting the scope, get it right!Rocks/gravel on a riverbed............

If I lived anywhere else I would but I've had lots of experience putting masking tape on metal and wood alike. Down here, after about 3-ish weeks in our summer, even the blue tape will leave glue behind. It just can't take this 100+ temp with 90% humidity day in and day out. I do appreciate the info though.
