[TR] Ball Joint Rubbers

[Don Spence]

Sorry to be so blunt but, dumb idea.   While duct tape may be good  
for many things, (except taping heating ducts) this is not one of  
them. The exposure to moisture, air flow and flexing would soon cause  
the tape to dry out and let go. As well, any contamination on the  
rubber, including or especially shipping wax, would impair adhesion.  
That and the convoluted surface would make it difficult to get a good  
"set" in the first instance. Then you add the environment in which  
you expect it to operate... The one thing that duct tape will stick  
to forever, is itself, sticky side to sticky side. Other than that it  
dries out relatively quickly and falls off.
Cheers
Don
