Saw these on PSP and decided they be worth a try (1.20 a bag).
Nugent is the guinea pig today, and I havent rubbered her in 2 years, and the old guy who owned it probably years before that.

I think they look ok, and will prob suit King Pin better.

I'm thinking it's clean. You're probably seeing the planking.

Might be ok on my Dolly Parton.

yep, not the best PF but its a sweet player ()

Odd colour, but more importantly - how do they react compared to white and black?

bounce-wise fine, dirt attracting wise see how they go
Be good if other colors were available, deeper blue would look great on FT.
Shame we are restricted to black or white.

The teal looks great I reckon.
Are any other colours available?

I am not the least bit fussy with my machines. I expect that they play properly, and look fairly ok.
Yep the rubbers have grown on me, teal is a winner lol

The ones you got from PSP were WMS rubbers that IPB had leftover from their purchase of the Williams parts. They are old leftovers (over 10 years old) from WMS so they may not be the longest lasting rubbers nor the best performing rubbers around. When I saw them I wasn't too keen on the colour so I didn't keep any for any of my machines. I'd say they'd make for a good novelty rubber job on a machine but I wouldn't recommend installing them on a machine that is tough to change out.
Karsten Beck is a distributor of ours and he is a top notch bloke to do business with and is very trust worthy (the main requirement of being one of our distributors i.e. RTBB).

Glad you agree, I really like that he's honest and pays his debts...same as Karsten Beck, whom I was actually referring. <..>

This is a thread about unusual rubbers. Its not a place to discuss who maybe honest and pay their debts. Why you wish to discuss that here one can only speculate, but do the original poster some respect by sticking to the topic?
-
Agreed. Please keep the thread on topic.

Mate, with all due respect and my apologies if I offended, my post was ALL about the topic of the rubbers and their origin (I hope am intitled to my opinion just like anyone else) and I gave Karsten Beck a good reference whom someone linked to earlier...if anyone distracted from topic perhaps it could be suggested it was you, I merely responded to your post about Greg (why you have an issue with giving good references is a bit baffling). We can all speculate as to why you seem to want to have a go at me and my apoligies if I've ever offended you but it seems to be what you've been doing lately along with the posts made in Gregs section. !@#

I have said nothing but good about Greg, and have recommended him to many.
Maybe there has been something lost in the translation.
Anyway that's enough said from me.
Cheers
