I am making a 4" diameter HPR with a 38mm motor mount. I am using a shipping tube that's probably in the range of 20 years old, and I consider it a little soft. So I attempted to fiberglass it, but my attempt at that came out only half-way decent. Some of the fiberglass did not stick to the tube while other sections did, so it's uneven, but stronger. I am now considering wrapping it in Duct Tape (or Duck Tape), to try and finalize this, plus then I don't need to paint it!
Other than the tape causing a weight issue (but not that much of an issue); is there any reason I CANNOT wrap the tube with duct tape? Would the RSO not allow that for some reason? Or have other people done this successfully?
