Today I used my Migliore Competizione (glossiest wax I own!) anyway when I bought it about a year ago I wrapped the outside in clear box tape fearing the lettering on the

sticker would wear off. I got it out of my cupboard today and the lettering from under the tape was gone! Not that it matters but I thought it was weird! This is what it

should look like

How did that happen?? No big deal but I wonder

It appears that:

The packing tape's adhesive-bonding-mechanism's-adhereance to the Competizione lettering was stronger
than the Competizione lettering's-bonding-mechanism's-adhereance was to the wax container.

Something had to give.
Be glad it wasn't the wax container.

:D

Are you saying it just disappeared with the clear tape still over it or it came off when you peeled the tape off?

FunX725's sense of humor is unbeatable. Like Opti Coat (permanent)

What is the 725 for? (Just Wondering)

I knew I could count on you bob! This makes sense. I'm glad it wasn't the container as well.

I never pulled the tape off. That's the weird thing. The lettering disappeared from under the tape. I think Bob mailed it though. The tapes adhesive ate the lettering. Haha there's irony for ya!
