Until now, I've never heard of somebody doing this twice ... so ok, who knows ... after all these years ... I'm still open to convincing logic ... however there's a lot of data stacked against this "idea"...
Make no bones about it ... I call'em snake oil!
FWIW... I make it a point to strike up conversation with the owners of rigs with these
and while not scientific, my consensus is those that have had them for a short time ... try to believe. Those that have had them a long time not so much
Many a campfire chat where Air-Tabs were the brunt of jokes and stories of folly. We all fall pray to gimmicks that we've justified one way or another. Hell I remember a day long ago when they just about got stuck to one of my rigs!
