Technicality, yes. But it is what it is and the book specifically states the knob can be taped, but nothing about sprays. Would I go looking for this booger myself? Probably not, but if brought to me......
Mike, do you think this was an oversight in the editing process?

By the way the rule is presented, this would mean that pine tar would be illegal on the safety knob. I can't imagine any real reason why this would be prohibited, as I can't imagine any advantage this would give anyone. Especially since ASA now allows tapers.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
