Also, take a breath. Re-read what you wrote. It's in a pretty imperious and demanding tone, imho. Lighten up and you'll get better results.
it's not an overspecified problem, it's a simple problem/goal:
1. no punctures
it's a simple premise most people missed:
2. i can't be bothered to search for velox, for tubeless tape. the local bike shops i have around only have crap. velox is not in stock, the butyl tape i have from some old times is dirt cheap (zero), i have it near me and i just am not so sure about doing all this work, going on for a ride or two later... only to see myself worked for nothing.
i will lighten up and just ignore future replies to this thread as i have almost zero hopes of finding useful replies except "cheer up" ones.
no offense, and thanks for your positive attitude.
others say they will grab popcorn etc.
nevermind the bollocks.
