Hi guys, I am trying to understand how much it costs to boost a rubber. Does someone know how many times you can boost a rubber with a single bottle of Falco tempo Long (150 ml)? i.e. how many layers with 150 ml? Thanks

That depends on how long that one layer lasts. If it is true that 3 layers need to be put on a rubber and then the effect will stay for around 3 months, I firmly believe that one bottle is enough for a rubber for at least 1.5 years, unless it gets worn out. If you use only one or two layers to reboost, it might last even longer.
Maybe applying a single layer will get you the same result but you will have to reboost every month. Take it with a pinch of salt, it is just a guess. |

Falco Tempo Long booster on Boost TC.
First layer on November 27. Second layer on November 28. Today, 8 days after the last layer the dome is still there. When the rubber is flat I'll glue it. seguso, I estimate that the 150ml bottle is enough for 2 years.

The duration of the effect depends on the number of layers you use. 3 layers last for maybe two-three months. Of course you may re-apply.
I haven't tried dandoy booster.

has anyone the feeling that simple Falco is more efficient than long Falco??
i put the same layers and with falco long the rubber did not boost that much as with the simple falco. |

You are right. The effect of Falco Long lasts longer though.

I get bigger domes with the Long Booster compared to the regular one. The dome takes longer to form though.
To answer seguso's question, the stuff is pretty thin, so a bottle will last you a long time. I know a few people that use it, and they only use it bring back glue-feeling from Tensioned rubbers (Tenergy, bluefire, etc) once they lose it... they only use a single thin layer to bring it back. |

On my T05 the effect lasts approx. 1 and a half month. At this moment only one layer is enough to seriously dome the rubber and the rubbers lays flat after 6-7days. One thing bothers me though-I still haven't found out do I have to clean the sponge from the older glue and booster before applying again. I don't clean and the rubber grows heavier and heavier. How do you do it guys?

Hi Kolev -
Use the Revolution glue (available from Megaspin). It is very easy to remove this glue (at least if you have 4-6 layers of it on the rubber as this gives the glue layer sufficiently tensile strength to take it off in one swoop).

What's the best 3 layer application for H3 commercial? I was thinking of doing thin-thick-thin, but I could also do thin-thick-thick.
