Thanks Topman, I read a notice recently on that subject, particular reference to Type IV re-freezing if worked into a crevice following repeat applications, the elevator being the prime example. Sounds like what you are referring to.
I should have emphasised that I had one eye on the generally better holdover times with type IV, though some of the newer Type II seem to be just as good.
Thanks,
