Pole clamp question

[Stevieboy]

wrap of masking tape

Hope you mean insulation tape?? Masking tape will go mushy when it gets wet and will bind the sections of the pole up.

Don't use a resin debonder as it will eat the pole. gently heat them with a hairdryer or electric heat gun normally softens the expoy so they slide off after a good wiggle
