need help looking for "Print" rim tape-red - SV650.org

I know this is a little odd post but i was wondering if any of you have seen some red 7mm tape rim tape from a company called "print" they are Italian
www.print.it iirc

i have tried that keiti stuff (rubbish peels off and isn't that reflective.

a kind neighbour gave me some (only enough for one full wheel) this has "3m" branding over it and it sticks really well and is very reflective.

my only issue is i can't find any more, i have tried my local shops (they say print had some issue in their distro house recently) i have asked if they can order and he said no basically.

i've googled about and busters did have some but they sold it all.

i would appreciate if any one can point me in the right direction.

thanks

Reg/Rec must have fried. Should have fitted a Honda one

Being serious, go to your local signage shop, they should be able to supply a decent one.
It shouldn't be hard as its 3M vinyl!

Looking at the catalogue most of their gear will be rebranded (like my local graphics place does big orders for Louis in Germany)

Bit like racing stripes on corsa's or giant spoilers on saxo's, just not regarded as a particularly tasteful mod tbh. We've not got any 3m at work so it mean ordering some in for a tiny little strip = £10 delivery charge from supplier, and 3m isn't cheap stuff tbh. Have you looked on eBay? There should someone on there selling what you're after for not too much money..

If You like rim tape then go for it.
Its persona choice and sometime make the diffrence to finnish a bike off.
