Can someone please post instructions on how to use both of them? I haven't played in 4 years and forgot everything. How long should you wait after each optimizer layer? Is it true that you need to wait 24 hours on the last layer?

How long does the effect last? I generally use 3 layers.

I have been using speed optimizer on my tenergy 05 and tenergy 64 but the stretch is too too big. The dome is too big. Can I reduce this? Say lamp oil??The free chack is terrible and not helping either as it doesn't stick well to the blade and the rubber keeps coming off. Free chack doesn't stick as well as the old glues did...

And for free chack.. any tips on peeling off the glue? it's so so hard to peel and makes a huge mess. Takes ages with my thumb. Any products I can use?

Do I have to peel off after each time I wanna re-apply? Because I heard it's hard for speed optimizer to penetrate if the free chack residue is still on...

Any advice form our readers for Jimmy?

Remember though that using oils etc are illegal.

To peel off glue I have found solvents like acetone to be useful but use them sparingly as they will effect the rubber.

Dear Alois,

 

I only found out they were illegal a few days ago. I haven't played in a long long time and I thought anything below a certain VOC level is legal. But just for experiemental purposes Alois, have you tried Speed Optimizer One or any other boosters and what's the best way to use them? Is there anything besides Acetone that works? I have heard acetone is quite toxic.

I haven't used the optimizers at all.  Hopefully others will come in with some advice here.  Turpentine is also good but again quite strong.
