I'm at 7/16ths and I'm trying to stretch to 1/2. I've had 7/16ths for months now. I'm using a clear taper and it just doesnt seem to want to stretch. Does anyone have any ideas?

I am at 9/16" right now.
and want to know what's a better way to stretch to 5/8"
ACRYLIC TAPER
or
TAPE?

If tape, what kind of tape is best. And how many layers of tape (EST) would equal 5/8" on a 9/16" plug.

Thanks for the help.

I'm currently stretching to 6g I've tried to use a taper but it just wouldn't budge so now I'm back to the good old taping method. Ill have pictures in a couple of days.

Ok so this is kinda off topic but how do you open a CBR?
