    Where can I get reflective sticky tape?

    Yep like the titile suggests I need some reflective sticky tape so I can stick them on my panniers and helmet.

    I have had trouble finding stuff some small amounts and most of the places I have tried only do them in bulk (over $100 bucks).

    The only success I have had was the little japanese store next to burger fuel on Queen St, although they only do it by 6cm by 6cm squares and it's costs 3 bucks each.


    If can you suggest some brands and places I can get some cheap please let me know or if you have some at home and keen on giving me some let me know also!

    Cheers.

    Ring/go to any signwriter. Tell them you need a small piece of Engineering grade reflective and the colour you want. They'll probably cut you a strip off a roll for FA.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Any Safety shop sells it if they sell hard hats and all that stuff they will also have reflective tape in various colours and sizes

    Yeah there is a NZ safety shop on Archers Rd, Glenfield. I would guarantee they sell it.

    Be careful how much reflective tape you apply as it makes you a bigger target at night.

    Be aware that no matter how much reflective tape you have or how brightly coloured you and your Bike are, cage drivers will still say "Sorry Bro... Didn't see ya."

    These guys do pannier and helmet decals as well as custom laser cut. The ones thay show pic's of are quite cool because they look black in the daylight, however I think there is a rule in NZ about having only red reflectors to the rear though which would include your panniers because they are fixed to the bike, so you might need to check on that (reflectors you are wearing on your helmet would be exempt)

    I have bought a few meters to cover different things, you'll find them hidden on my bike and helmet.

    I only buy the 3M stuff, they are not cheap. But they are very good. What color you looking for? I have black and white.... not sure how much black I have left.

    Yeah, they sell it in a roll about 40-50cm odd long. Not too expensive either.

    P.S. Sorry for the late reply. Am on holiday and have no access to internet
