Great advice as always :) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18306#post-265161 Tue, 31 Oct 2017 20:06:59 +0000 Arellcat 265161@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Sewing would probably be more durable. One of the easiest ways to get hold of Scotchlite tape is to buy a cheap hi-viz vest from B&amp;Q for about £4 and unpick it (or just wear it...). You then end up with lots of fluorescent yellow fabric to make flags and things. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18306#post-265153 Tue, 31 Oct 2017 19:08:53 +0000 rider73 265153@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>you can get super sticky 3M style reflective tape from ebay (in many colours!) for next to nothing - and it wont put holes into your clothing , and you can cut it to shape - although obviously wont really go in the wash after that.... but the tape is so cheap , just reapply from the roll. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18306#post-265148 Tue, 31 Oct 2017 18:29:30 +0000 amir 265148@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I have a gilet that I wish to add some reflectives to. I was thinking to source some tape - not sure where from? Halfords?</p> <p>Also best to fit by sewing? I suspect the gilet (at home) is for low temperature ironing only - it's man-made.</p> <p>Any experience of similar would be received gratefully. </p>
