Hi,

I have a Woodcomp 3-blade prop that is great.. except the leading edge tape that came with it is creeping off at the tips.
Does anyone have an idea of what to use as a replacement? There are various 3M part numbers, but wondering if anyone has a recommendation.

Thanks,

Bill--
I had the same problem, especially with small stones hitting it. I looked
at a number of wicks, and aircraft spruce solutions but ended up using some
vinyl tape from ACE hardware. It's lasting as well as the original and is
cheap to replace.

Hello Listers,

I have used strips of metal aluminium tape with great success, I have doubled it up on itself and it works great at a very resonable price. Easy to replace too.
