[edit] Name
Is it Blu-tac or Blu-tack? The header and lede are differently spelled. Marnanel 15:40, Apr 16, 2004 (UTC)
Everything official I could find (including the packet in front of me) says Blu-Tack, and it doesn't seem to vary by country. I've moved the page and updated all links.--Dtcdthingy 21:36, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
The official website says it's "Blu Tack", so I've moved the page. -- Earle Martin [t/c] 13:14, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
- I've just added a photograph which clearly shows the correct spelling. -- Longhair\talk 12:52, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Interesting info
- blu-tack is fun to play with, you can mould it into different shapes.
due to....I dunno, complete stupidity? --Stretch 05:49, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hey now, let's be fair. Someone was just trying to help. They didn't quite succeed at doing what 'kpedia is for, but hey, but at least they tried. --Lenoxus 19:35, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Where can I get some?
Worldwide availability, or only in Europe and North America? Andycjp St Andrews Day 2006
- I've never seen it in North America. Maybe ask a contact in the UK to post you some? Marnanel 14:16, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- The basic product is available in most North American office supply stores, at least it would seem to me, but maybe not the specific brand. --Lenoxus 19:38, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "its original purpose is unknown"
What does this mean? Was it discovered in the ruins of a lost civilazation and/or space colony? I see no reason for its "original purpose" not to be the same as the one it is used for today. (I still didn't remove it because perhaps it is true in a way that can be better clarified.) --Lenoxus 19:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- I've gone and removed it, because it's a rather odd thing to say, and probably needs to be clarified with a source. — Matt Crypto 19:48, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
